Questions and Answers
  • 1. 

    If a triangle has a base of 6 inches and a height of 5 inches, what is its area?

    • A.

      15 Square Inches

    • B.

      30 Inches

    • C.

      30 Square Inches

    • D.

      15 Inches

    Correct Answer
    A. 15 Square Inches
    Explanation
    The area of a triangle is calculated by multiplying the base by the height and dividing the result by 2. In this case, the base is 6 inches and the height is 5 inches. So, the area of the triangle is (6 * 5) / 2 = 15 square inches.

    What is the average of 102, 100, 96 and 90?

      97

    • D.

      98

    Correct Answer
    C. 97
    Explanation
    The average of a set of numbers is found by adding up all the numbers and then dividing the sum by the total number of values. In this case, the sum of 102, 100, 96, and 90 is 388. Dividing 388 by 4 (the total number of values) gives us an average of 97.

    Correct Answer
    A. 18
    Explanation
    The expression (7 + 2) + 9 is solved by first adding 7 and 2, which gives 9. Then, adding 9 to 9 results in 18. Therefore, the correct answer is 18.

    The given question asks for the lowest terms of 48/100. The answer "25-Dec" does not make sense in this context and is likely a mistake. It is possible that the person who wrote the answer accidentally typed "25-Dec" instead of the correct answer. Without further information, it is not possible to determine the correct explanation for this answer.

      8-Jul

    Correct Answer
    D. 8-Jul
    Explanation
    The given question asks for the sum of 1/4 and 5/8. To find the sum, we need to have a common denominator. The common denominator of 4 and 8 is 8. We can convert 1/4 to 2/8. Now we can add 2/8 and 5/8, which equals 7/8. Therefore, the answer is 7/8, which is equivalent to 8-Jul.

    • D.

      9-Mar

    Correct Answer
    C. 6-May
    Explanation
    The correct answer is 6-May because when you add 2/3 and 1/6, you need to find a common denominator, which is 6. Then, you add the numerators together, resulting in 3/6. This fraction can be simplified to 1/2. Therefore, 2/3 + 1/6 equals 1/2, which can be represented as 6-May on a calendar.

      12 Inches

    Correct Answer
    D. 12 Inches
