Example Question #2708 : Ssat Elementary Level Quantitative (Math)

Multiply: $7.6 \times 5.5$

Possible Answers:

1.31

41.8

38.38

4.18

13.1

Correct answer:

41.8

Explanation:

We ignore the decimals for the time being, multiplying:

$76 \times 55 = 4180$

Since, between them, the two original factors have a total of two digits to the right of their decimal points, we place the decimal point in the product so that there are two digits to the right. This yields:

41.80 = 41.8

Example Question #3 : Multiplying Multi Digit Decimals

Gina is recylcing bottles. She earns $\$0.05$ for each plastic bottle she recycles and $\$0.07$ cents for each glass bottle she recycles.

If Gina recycles plastic bottles and glass bottles, how much money does she earn?

Possible Answers:

$\$2.15$

$\$2.40$

$\$2.20$

$\$2.05$

$\$1.95$

Correct answer:

$\$2.15$

Explanation:

Multiply the number of plastic bottles Gina recycles by the amount she earns for each plastic bottle, then multiply the number of glass bottles she recycles by the amount she earns for each glass bottle.

plastic bottles at $\$0.05$ each earns $\$0.05 \times 15 = \$0.75$

glass bottles at $\$0.07$ each earns $\$0.07 \times 20 = \$1.40$

Add these earnings together to find Gina's total earnings.

$\$0.75 + \$1.40 = \$2.15$

Example Question #31 : How To Multiply

Madison invests $1,500 in the stock market. After one year, Madison's initial amount of money doubles! Because of her prior success, she invests another $1,000 into the stock market. After this additional investment, how much money does Madison have in the stock market?

Possible Answers:

5,500 dollars

10,000 dollars

4,500 dollars

5,000 dollars

4,000 dollars

Correct answer:

4,000 dollars

Explanation:

Madison begins with $1,500. Because her initial investment doubles, we need to multiply the beginning amount of money by two!

$1,500\times 2 = 3,000$

Now, Madison has $3,000 in the stock market. Because of her success, she decides to put in another $1,000, which means we need to add that to $3,000 to get the correct answer ($4,000)!

3,000 + 1,000 = 4,000

Dawna wants to buy coffee beans from a local supermarket. If the coffee beans costs $\$10$ a pound, how much would Dawna have to spend on coffee beans if she only wants to buy $\frac{1}{4}$ of a pound?

Possible Answers:

$\$2.50$

$\$1.50$
