1. QuestionMultiple choice

A recipe uses 3 cups of flour for 2 batches. How many cups are needed for 6 batches at the same rate?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: A

The correct answer is 9 cups.

  1. Identify the task: Decide whether the question asks about ratios, rational numbers, expressions, equations, geometry, data, or modeling.
  2. Use the quantities: Six batches are three times as many as two, so 3 × 3 = 9 cups.
  3. Check the result: Review signs, units, operations, and whether the answer is reasonable in the situation.

Six batches are three times as many as two, so 3 × 3 = 9 cups.

2. QuestionMultiple choice

A car travels 180 miles in 3 hours. What is its unit rate?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: B

The correct answer is 60 miles per hour.

  1. Identify the task: Decide whether the question asks about ratios, rational numbers, expressions, equations, geometry, data, or modeling.
  2. Use the quantities: Divide distance by time: 180 ÷ 3 = 60 miles per hour.
  3. Check the result: Review signs, units, operations, and whether the answer is reasonable in the situation.

Divide distance by time: 180 ÷ 3 = 60 miles per hour.

3. QuestionMultiple choice

What is 25 percent of 80?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: C

The correct answer is 20.

  1. Identify the task: Decide whether the question asks about ratios, rational numbers, expressions, equations, geometry, data, or modeling.
  2. Use the quantities: Twenty-five percent is one-fourth, and one-fourth of 80 is 20.
  3. Check the result: Review signs, units, operations, and whether the answer is reasonable in the situation.

Twenty-five percent is one-fourth, and one-fourth of 80 is 20.

4. QuestionMultiple choice

Which number is greatest?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: D

The correct answer is 0.65.

  1. Identify the task: Decide whether the question asks about ratios, rational numbers, expressions, equations, geometry, data, or modeling.
  2. Use the quantities: 0.65 is 65 hundredths, greater than 60, 60.5, and 56 hundredths.
  3. Check the result: Review signs, units, operations, and whether the answer is reasonable in the situation.

0.65 is 65 hundredths, greater than 60, 60.5, and 56 hundredths.

5. QuestionMultiple choice

What is -4 + 9?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: A

The correct answer is 5.

  1. Identify the task: Decide whether the question asks about ratios, rational numbers, expressions, equations, geometry, data, or modeling.
  2. Use the quantities: Starting at -4 and moving 9 units to the right gives 5.
  3. Check the result: Review signs, units, operations, and whether the answer is reasonable in the situation.

Starting at -4 and moving 9 units to the right gives 5.

6. QuestionMultiple choice

What is the absolute value of -12?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: B

The correct answer is 12.

  1. Identify the task: Decide whether the question asks about ratios, rational numbers, expressions, equations, geometry, data, or modeling.
  2. Use the quantities: Absolute value is the distance from zero, so the absolute value of -12 is 12.
  3. Check the result: Review signs, units, operations, and whether the answer is reasonable in the situation.

Absolute value is the distance from zero, so the absolute value of -12 is 12.

7. QuestionMultiple choice

Which ratio is equivalent to 4:7?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: C

The correct answer is 12:21.

  1. Identify the task: Decide whether the question asks about ratios, rational numbers, expressions, equations, geometry, data, or modeling.
  2. Use the quantities: Multiplying both parts of 4:7 by 3 gives 12:21.
  3. Check the result: Review signs, units, operations, and whether the answer is reasonable in the situation.

Multiplying both parts of 4:7 by 3 gives 12:21.

8. QuestionMultiple choice

What is 2 to the power of 4?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: D

The correct answer is 16.

  1. Identify the task: Decide whether the question asks about ratios, rational numbers, expressions, equations, geometry, data, or modeling.
  2. Use the quantities: 2 to the power of 4 means 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 = 16.
  3. Check the result: Review signs, units, operations, and whether the answer is reasonable in the situation.

2 to the power of 4 means 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 = 16.
