A stackable CD rack holds 25 CDs and costs $4. Charlie has a collection of 150 CDs. How much will it cost him to buy enough racks to hold all of his CDs?
-
$4
-
$24
-
$25
-
$150
Correct Answer
A. $24Explanation
To find the cost of buying enough racks to hold all of his CDs, we need to divide the total number of CDs by the capacity of each rack. In this case, Charlie has 150 CDs and each rack can hold 25 CDs. Therefore, he will need 6 racks (150 CDs / 25 CDs per rack). Since each rack costs $4, the total cost of buying enough racks will be $24 (6 racks * $4 per rack).Rate this question:

Proportion
-
Rate
-
Cross product
Correct Answer
A. Cross productExplanation
The cross product is the product of the two means or the two extremes of a proportion. In a proportion, the cross product is used to compare the two ratios and determine if they are equal. It helps in solving for unknown values in a proportion equation. Therefore, the correct answer is cross product.Rate this question:

Susan found a bag of 20 golf balls at a garage sale and bought the bag for 75 cents. Express the ratio of cost to the number of balls in lowest terms.
-
20:75
-
75:20
-
4:15
-
15:4
Correct Answer
A. 15:4Explanation
The ratio of the cost to the number of balls can be found by dividing the cost by the number of balls. In this case, the cost is 75 cents and the number of balls is 20. Dividing 75 by 20 gives us 3.75. To express this ratio in lowest terms, we can multiply both sides by 4 to get 15:4.Rate this question:
