Example Question #166 : How To Find The Whole From The Part

The ratio of blue to green lizards is 6:20. If there are 350 blue lizards, how many lizards are there total?

Possible Answers:

$1000 \textsl{ lizards}$

$1516 \textsl{ lizards}$

$200 \textsl{ lizards}$

$2023 \textsl{ lizards}$

Correct answer:

$1516 \textsl{ lizards}$

Explanation:

The easiest way to solve this problem is by using cross multiplication. First we need to determine how many green lizards there are and then add this to the number of blue lizards to get the total amount of lizards. Therefore,

$\frac{6}{20}= \frac{350}{x}$

6x=7000

x=1166 (approx.) amount of green lizards

The easiest way to approximate this part of the problem is to notice that 6 is very close to 7. So if 7x=7000 , x=1000 . So if we are dividing by a slightly smaller number we will get a larger answer.

We then need to add this number to 350 blue lizards in order to get the total amount of lizards. Therefore, $350+1166=1516 \textsl{ lizards}$ .

Example Question #167 : How To Find The Whole From The Part

There are 6 parts root beer to 3 parts ice cream in a root beer float. If there is 18oz of root beer, how many total ounces make up the root beer float (ice cream+ root beer)?

Possible Answers:

$18 \textsl{ ounces}$

$36\textsl{ ounces}$

$9\textsl{ ounces}$

$27\textsl{ ounces}$

Correct answer:

$27\textsl{ ounces}$

Explanation:

First, divide the 18oz of root beer by 6 parts in order to determine how many ounces per 1 part of root beer. Therefore, $\frac{18}{6}=\frac{3\ ounces}{1\ part}$ .

In order to determine the amount of ice cream, multiply 1 part (3 oz) by 3, since ice cream is comprised of 3 parts. Therefore, there are 9oz of ice cream. Add this to the 18oz of root beer in order to get the total ounces of the root beer float.

$18+9=27 \textsl{ ounces}$ .

Example Question #4 : Read And Write Decimals To Thousandths Using Base Ten Numerals, Number Names, And Expanded Form: Ccss.Math.Content.5.Nbt.A.3a

What is 1.27 in expanded form?

Possible Answers:

$1\times1+2\times\left(\frac{1}{100}\right)+7\times\left(\frac{1}{1000}\right)$

$1\times1+2\times\left(\frac{1}{100}\right)+7\times\left(\frac{1}{100}\right)$

$1\times1+2\times\left(\frac{1}{10}\right)+7\times\left(\frac{1}{10}\right)$

$1\times1+2\times\left(\frac{1}{10}\right)+7\times\left(\frac{1}{1000}\right)$

$1\times1+2\times\left(\frac{1}{10}\right)+7\times\left(\frac{1}{100}\right)$

Correct answer:

$1\times1+2\times\left(\frac{1}{10}\right)+7\times\left(\frac{1}{100}\right)$

Explanation:

When we write a number in expanded form, we multiply each digit by its place value.

is in the ones place, so we multiply by .

$1\times1=1$

is in the tenths place, so we multiply by $\frac{1}{10}$ .

$2\times\frac{1}{10}=.2$

is in the hundredths place, so we multiply by $\frac{1}{100}$ .

$7\times\frac{1}{100}=.07$

Then we add the products together.

$\frac{\begin{array}[b]{r}1.00\\ +\ .20\\ .07 \end{array}}{ \ \ \space1.27}$
