Question 1 of 5
A farmer had about 150 bags of potatoes on his trailer. Each bag contained from 23 to 27 pounds of potatoes. What is the best estimate of the total number of pounds of potatoes on the farmer's trailer?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The best estimate of the total number of pounds of potatoes on the farmer's trailer can be calculated by finding the average weight per bag and then multiplying it by the total number of bags. Since each bag contains between 23 to 27 pounds, we can estimate the average weight per bag to be around 25 pounds. With 150 bags, the total weight would be approximately 150 bags * 25 pounds per bag = 3,750 pounds. Therefore, the best estimate is 3,700 pounds (Choice B). Choice A (3,000 pounds) is too low as it assumes the lowest possible weight per bag consistently. Choice C (4,100 pounds) is too high as it assumes the highest possible weight per bag consistently. Choice D (5,000 pounds) is also too high and overestimates the total weight based on the given information.
Question 2 of 5
The table below shows the number of books checked out from a library over the course of 4 weeks. Which equation describes the relationship between the number of books (b) and weeks (w)?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: b = 5w + 10. To determine the correct equation, we can analyze the data in the table given. We can observe that when the number of weeks increases by 1, the number of books checked out increases by 5. This indicates a constant rate of increase of 5 books per week, which aligns with the equation b = 5w + 10. The initial value of 10 represents the number of books already checked out before week 1. Choices A, C, and D do not exhibit a constant rate of increase or the correct initial value based on the data provided.
Question 3 of 5
Robert scores three new clients every eight months. After how many months has he secured 24 new clients?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: To find the total months required for Robert to secure 24 clients, we can set up a proportion: 3 clients/8 months = 24 clients/x months. Cross multiplying gives us 3x = 192, so x = 64 months. Therefore, the correct answer is A (64 months). The other choices are incorrect because they do not yield the correct solution when the proportion is applied. B (58 months), C (52 months), and D (66 months) do not align with the correct calculation based on the given information.
Question 4 of 5
While at the local ice skating rink, Cora went around the rink 27 times in total. She slipped and fell 20 of the 27 times she skated around the rink. What approximate percentage of the times around the rink did Cora not slip and fall?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: To find the percentage of times Cora did not slip and fall, subtract the times she fell (20) from the total times around the rink (27): 27 - 20 = 7. Then, divide the times she did not fall (7) by the total times (27): 7 / 27 ≈ 0.259 or 26%. The correct answer is C (26%), as it represents the approximate percentage of times Cora did not slip and fall. Explanation for other choices: A: 37% - Incorrect. This percentage does not accurately represent the times Cora did not slip and fall. B: 74% - Incorrect. This percentage is too high and does not align with the calculation. D: 15% - Incorrect. This percentage is too low and does not align with the calculation.
