Example Question #11 : How To Find The Part From The Whole

Find the missing part.

$6 + \square=17$

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

To find a whole, add the two parts. Since one of the parts is missing, think: 6 (part) plus what (part) equals 17 (whole)?

6 + (11)= 17

The missing part is 11.

This is the same as finding: 17 (whole) minus 6 (part) equals what (part)?

17-6=11

Example Question #4226 : Ssat Elementary Level Quantitative (Math)

Rosa has quarters, dimes, and nickels. If she spends $\$1.25$ , how much money will she have left?

Possible Answers:

$\$0.55$

$\$0.65$

$\$0.60$

$\$0.50$

$\$0.40$

Correct answer:

$\$0.60$

Explanation:

To find out how much money Rosa has to begin with, multiply the number of each coin she has by the value of the individual coins, then add these products together.

She has quarters worth $\$0.25$ each. $3 \times \$0.25 = \$0.75.$

She has dimes worth $\$0.10$ each. $6 \times \$0.10 = \$0.60$ .

She has nickels worth $\$0.05$ each. $10 \times \$0.05 = \$0.50$

Adding these products together gives the amount of money Rosa has to begin with: $\$0.75 + \$0.60 + \$0.50 = \$1.85$ .

Subtract the amount of money Rosa spent from this value to get how much money she has remaining: $\$1.85 - \$1.25 = \$0.60$ .

Example Question #16 : How To Find The Part From The Whole

What is seven-elevenths of 814?

Possible Answers:

528

542

578

518

612

Correct answer:

518

Explanation:

Multiply the fraction $\frac{7}{11}$ by 814, rewriting 814 as $\frac{814}{1}$ and cross-cancelling:

$\frac{7}{11} \times 814 = \frac{7}{11} \times \frac{814}{1} = \frac{7}{1} \times \frac{74}{1} = \frac{518}{1} = 518$
