1. QuestionMultiple choice

What is the mean of 4, 6, and 8?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: A

The correct answer is 6.

  1. Identify the math task: Determine whether the question asks for computation, an equation, a geometric measure, a data value, or a model.
  2. Show the relationship: Add the values and divide by 3: (4 + 6 + 8) ÷ 3 = 6.
  3. Check the result: Use estimation, substitution, a diagram, or a second calculation to confirm that the answer fits the problem.

Add the values and divide by 3: (4 + 6 + 8) ÷ 3 = 6.

2. QuestionMultiple choice

What is the median of 2, 5, 7, 9, and 12?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: B

The correct answer is 7.

  1. Identify the math task: Determine whether the question asks for computation, an equation, a geometric measure, a data value, or a model.
  2. Show the relationship: The values are ordered, and 7 is the middle value.
  3. Check the result: Use estimation, substitution, a diagram, or a second calculation to confirm that the answer fits the problem.

The values are ordered, and 7 is the middle value.

3. QuestionMultiple choice

What is the range of 3, 10, 4, and 8?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: C

The correct answer is 7.

  1. Identify the math task: Determine whether the question asks for computation, an equation, a geometric measure, a data value, or a model.
  2. Show the relationship: Range equals maximum minus minimum: 10 − 3 = 7.
  3. Check the result: Use estimation, substitution, a diagram, or a second calculation to confirm that the answer fits the problem.

Range equals maximum minus minimum: 10 − 3 = 7.

4. QuestionMultiple choice

A bag contains 3 red tiles and 2 blue tiles. What is the probability of selecting a red tile?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: D

The correct answer is 3/5.

  1. Identify the math task: Determine whether the question asks for computation, an equation, a geometric measure, a data value, or a model.
  2. Show the relationship: There are 3 favorable outcomes out of 5 total tiles, so the probability is 3/5.
  3. Check the result: Use estimation, substitution, a diagram, or a second calculation to confirm that the answer fits the problem.

There are 3 favorable outcomes out of 5 total tiles, so the probability is 3/5.

5. QuestionMultiple choice

A scatter plot shows that as hours of practice increase, scores generally increase. What type of association is shown?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: A

The correct answer is Positive association.

  1. Identify the math task: Determine whether the question asks for computation, an equation, a geometric measure, a data value, or a model.
  2. Show the relationship: Both variables tend to increase together, which is a positive association.
  3. Check the result: Use estimation, substitution, a diagram, or a second calculation to confirm that the answer fits the problem.

Both variables tend to increase together, which is a positive association.

6. QuestionMultiple choice

What is 20% of 45?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: B

The correct answer is 9.

  1. Identify the math task: Determine whether the question asks for computation, an equation, a geometric measure, a data value, or a model.
  2. Show the relationship: Convert 20% to 0.20 and multiply: 0.20 × 45 = 9.
  3. Check the result: Use estimation, substitution, a diagram, or a second calculation to confirm that the answer fits the problem.

Convert 20% to 0.20 and multiply: 0.20 × 45 = 9.
