Example Question #3 : Equations

11+39=12+28+2a

Possible Answers:

2.5

Correct answer:

Explanation:

First follow order of operations and solve on each side.

11+39=12+28+2a

50=40+2a

Then, subtract 40 from each side to leave only the variable:

50-40=40+2a-40

10=2a

Finally, divide both sides by 2.

$10\div 2=2a\div 2$

The answer is 5=a

Example Question #4 : How To Find The Solution To An Equation

13 + 27=12+3+ 5a

Possible Answers:

5.5

Correct answer:

Explanation:

First solve with order of operations on each side:

13 + 27=12+3+ 5a

40 = 15+5a

Then subtract 15 from each side:

40-15=15+ 5a-15

25=5a

Finally, divide each side by 5:

$25\div 5=5a\div 5$

5=a

The answer is 5.

Example Question #831 : Concepts

Melissa is going on a road trip to her mother's house in another state. On a full tank of gas, she can travel 230 miles. At least how many times will she need to fill up her gas tank if her mother lives 950 miles away?

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

Divide the total distance (950) by the number of miles per full tank of gas (230).

$950\div 230=4.1$

Therefore, she will have to fill up her tank with gas at least 5 times.

Answer is at least 5 times.

Example Question #832 : Concepts

$12a + 2a -18= 3(6) + 2(5\ast 2)$

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

First solve what is inside parentheses and follow the order of operations:

$12a + 2a -18= 3(6) + 2(5\ast 2)$

14a-18= 18+ 2(10)

14a -18= 18+20

14a-18=38

Then, add 18 to each side:

14a=56

Finally, divide each side my 14:

$14a \div 14= 56\div 14$

a=4

The answer is 4.

Example Question #833 : Concepts

$3\frac{3}{9} \div 5\frac{1}{5}=$

Possible Answers:

$\frac{117}{75}$

$1\frac{3}{4}$

$\frac{25}{39}$

$1\frac{1}{2}$

Correct answer:

$\frac{25}{39}$

Explanation:

First, convert each fraction into an improper fraction.

$\frac{30}{9} \div \frac{26}{5}=$

Then, change the operation to multiplication and flip the second fraction.

$\frac{30}{9} \ast \frac{5}{26}=$

Reduce and multiply.

$\frac{30}{9}\ast \frac{5}{26}=\frac{10}{3}\ast \frac{5}{26}=\frac{5}{3}\ast \frac{5}{13}=\frac{25}{39}$
