Example Question #81 : Data Analysis And Probability
Find the missing number in the list:
In this sequence of numbers, there is an important pattern to recognize. Each number is less than the previous number in the sequence by a difference of . Thus, .
Example Question #34 : Sets
What is the missing number in the following sequence:
In this sequence of numbers, there is an important pattern to recognize. Each number is greater than the number prior to it by a margin of . In other words, each number in this list is a multiple of . , , thus the next number in this sequence is the product of which equals .
Example Question #33 : Data Analysis
What is the missing value of in this sequence?
In this sequence, every subsequent number is less than the preceding number. Given that the number that precedes is , the value of w is . Therefore, is the correct answer.
Example Question #1641 : Isee Lower Level (Grades 5 6) Quantitative Reasoning
Use the following table to determine the cost of purchasing two books.
The relationship between the values is ,
where represents the cost of purchased books and represents the number of books purchased.
Once we realize this, we can determine how much purchasing two books would cost:
Example Question #1 : How To Find The Answer From A Table
Use the table to determine how much one cupcake would cost.
We can determine the relationship between the values by creating a ratio of number of cupcakes to cost:
Where represents the cost of 1 cupcake.
We can now solve for :
The cost of one cupcake is then $0.85
Example Question #1 : How To Find The Answer From A Table
The following table consists of the test grades from students. Use the table to determine how many students received a on the test.
We were told the grades are from students. The most direct way to solve this problem is to add the numbers of students listed so far:
We know there is a total of students so we can set up the equation:
which leaves us with .
So the missing value is eight.
Example Question #37 : Data Analysis
Use the table to determine how much one cupcake would cost.
We can determine the relationship between the values by creating a ratio of number of cupcakes to cost:
Where represents the cost of 1 cupcake.
We can now solve for :
The cost of one cupcake is then
Example Question #1 : Venn Diagrams
Students were asked if they prefer TV or radio. The following Venn Diagram depicts the number of students who said TV, radio, or both. How many students like both TV and radio?
15
7
12
22
7
The blue circle of the Venn diagram depicts the number of students who prefer TV, the orange circle depicts the number of students who prefer radio, and the region of overlap indicates the number of students who like both. Therefore, 7 students like both TV and radio.
Example Question #1 : How To Find The Common Part With A Venn Diagram
Aracely posted a survey question using one of her social network accounts. She grouped the results into three categories. The response results are represented by the Venn diagram shown above.
Group represents the respondents that answered "yes" to the survey question. Group represents the respondents that answered "no" to the survey question. And, the overlapping part of the diagram represents the respondents that answered "maybe" to the survey question.
What percentage of the respondents answered "maybe" to Aracely's survey question?
The overlapping portion of the Venn diagram represents the percentage of respondents that answered "maybe" to Aracely's survey question.
Since the diagram shows that exactly percent of the respondents answered "yes" or "no" to the question
.
The solution is the total percent population take away the percent that answered "yes" or "no":
Example Question #1651 : Isee Lower Level (Grades 5 6) Quantitative Reasoning
The Venn diagram shown above has three categories that represent information about the Wildcats varsity baseball team.
Category represents the number of players on the team that are left-handed.
Category represents the numebr of players on the team that are pitchers.
And, the overlapping portion of the Venn diagram represents the number of players that are left-handed pitchers.
Given that and that there are players in the overlapping region of the diagram.
What fraction of the players are left-handed pitchers?
Since there are left-handed pitchers and total players that are either left-handed, pitchers or both the solution is:
