Example Question #371 : Isee Lower Level (Grades 5 6) Mathematics Achievement

Solve:

$4(5-7)+2\times3$

Possible Answers:

None of these

Correct answer:

Explanation:

To solve the expression below, use order of operations. We first handle the parenthesis and the multiplication:

$4(5-7)+2\times3$

$4(-2)+2\times 3$

4(-2)+6

-8+6

Finally, add:

-8+6=-2

Example Question #372 : Isee Lower Level (Grades 5 6) Mathematics Achievement

Destiny is buying tickets to a concert for herself and her 3 friends. Each ticket is $50. Destiny's friends are paying her back slowly. So far, her 3 friends have each paid her back $25, $20, and $30. How much more money do her friends owe her, in dollars?

Possible Answers:

$\$50$

$\$100$

$\$75$

$\$125$

$\$150$

Correct answer:

$\$75$

Explanation:

If Destiny bought 3 tickets at $50 each for her friends, that means that her friends ower her a total of $150.

$\$50+\$50+\$50=\$150$

The equation to see what she is still owed would be equal to this original amount, minus the money that has already been paid back.

$\text{Owed}=\$150-(\$20+\$25+\$30)$

Solve to find the amount still owed.

$\text{Owed}=\$150-(\$75)$

$\text{Owed}=\$75$

Example Question #371 : Isee Lower Level (Grades 5 6) Mathematics Achievement

Mary has 2 daughters and 7 old dresses to give them. How many dresses do each of her daughters get?

Possible Answers:

4 dresses and 4 dresses

3 dresses and 4 dresses

3.5 dresses and 3.5 dresses

3 dresses and 3 dresses

None of these

Correct answer:

3 dresses and 4 dresses

Explanation:

If Mary had 2 daughters and 7 dresses, then that means that one daughter will get 3 dresses, and the other daughter will get 4 dresses.

It is impossible for someone to get 3.5 dresses, so that answer choice is not correct.

Example Question #24 : How To Add

What is the standard form for eighty-six thousand, four hundred and twenty-six?

Possible Answers:

86,420

86,426

860,426

80,426

Correct answer:

86,426

Explanation:

In order to solve for the standard form for eighty-six thousand, four hundred and twenty-six, each part should be broken down piece by piece.

eighty-six thousand is equal to 86,000

four hundred is equal to 400

twenty-six is equal to 26

86,000+400+26 = 86,426

Thus, the correct answer is:

86,426

Example Question #373 : Numbers And Operations

Simplify the expression:

3x(3+4)+x

Possible Answers:

31x

10x+4

22x

30x

29x

Correct answer:

22x

Explanation:

This question tests order of operations. To simplify the expression, the first step is to add together the numbers in parentheses:

3x(3+4)+x

3x(7)+x

Multiply, then add:

21x+x

22x

Example Question #372 : Isee Lower Level (Grades 5 6) Mathematics Achievement

Simplify the expression:

$5x(x+4)+3x^{2}+2x$

Possible Answers:

8x+22

$5x^{2}+22x$

$8x^{2}+22x$

30x

8x+22x

Correct answer:

$8x^{2}+22x$

Explanation:

The first step to simplifying this expression is to apply the distributive property to the parenthesis:

$5x(x+4)+3x^{2}+2x$

$(5x\times x)+(5x\times4)+3x^2+2x$

This gives us:

$5x^{2}+20x+3x^{2}+2x$

The next step is to combine like terms by adding:

5x^2+3x^2+20x+2x

$8x^{2}+22x$

Example Question #373 : Isee Lower Level (Grades 5 6) Mathematics Achievement

If Randy starts watching a movie at 11:46 am and the movie ends at 1:56 pm, how long was the movie?

Possible Answers:

1 hour and 10 minutes

2 hours and 10 minutes

1 hour and 56 minutes

2 hours and 56 minutes

Correct answer:

2 hours and 10 minutes

Explanation:

If Randy started watching a movie at 11:46 am, and the movie ends at 1:56 pm, then to find out how long the movie was, we should first determine how much time elapsed between 11:46 am and 12:00 pm, and then how much time elapsed between 12:00 pm and 1:56 pm.

Between 11:46 a.m. and 12:00 pm, 14 minutes went by.

Between 12:00 pm and 1:56 pm, 1 hour and 56 minutes went by.

Therefore, the length of the movie will be the sum of 1 hour and 56 minutes, plus 14 minutes.

This results in 2 hours and 10 minutes.

Example Question #374 : Numbers And Operations

Randy has a savings account that has $\$150$ in it. His sister gives him $\$50$ to put in the account. After this, he then increases the total in his account (including the $\$50$ from his sister) by $50\%$ by saving money from his job. How much money does Randy now have in his account (in dollars)?

Possible Answers:

$\$200$

$\$300$

$\$150$

$\$225$

Correct answer:

$\$300$

Explanation:

If Randy had $\$150$ in his account and his sister then gave him $\$50$ , the total in his account would be equal to $\$150+\$50=\$200$ .

A $50\%$ increase of $\$200$ would be $\$100$ . Therefore, the total in his account would be equal to the sum of $\$200$ and $\$100$ , which is $\$300$ .

Example Question #377 : Isee Lower Level (Grades 5 6) Mathematics Achievement

Bernard wants to learn how to surf. The start surfing, he needs a wetsuit, which costs $\$165$ , a beginner's surfboard priced at $\$250$ , and surf wax, which costs $\$12$ . What is the total cost of these materials in dollars?

Possible Answers:

$\$322$

$\$418$

$\$422$

$\$420$

Correct answer:

$\$422$

Explanation:

If Bernard needs to buy a wetsuit, a surfboard, and surf wax, this means he will take on costs of $165, $250, and $12. The sum of these amounts is below:

$\$160+\$250+\$12=\$422$

Example Question #378 : Numbers And Operations

If Annie had a collection of ten coins and then bought five additional coins, by what percentage did her collection increase?

Possible Answers:

$50\%$

$33\%$

$25\%$

$100\%$

Correct answer:

$50\%$

Explanation:

Given that Annie has coins, an increase of coins would mean that her coin collection increased by amount equal to half the size of her current collection. This is therefore equal to a $50\%$ increase. You can also figure this out by comparing the size of her collection before and after the new coins were added: $\frac{15}{10}=150\% - 100\%$ (to not count the original size of her collection in the calculation of the percent increase) $= 50\%$ . Thus, $50\%$ is the correct answer.
