Math

1. 8327 – 1278 =

a. 7149

b. 7209

c. 6059

d. 7049

1. D

8327 – 1278 = 7049

2. 294 X 21 =

2. B

a. 6017

b. 6174

c. 6728

d. 5679

294 X 21 = 6174

3. 1278 + 4920 =

a. 6298

b. 6108

c. 6198

d. 6098

3. C

1278 + 4920 = 6198

4. 285 * 12 =

4. A

a. 3420

b. 3402

c. 3024

d. 2322

285 * 12 = 3420

5. 4120 – 3216 =

a. 903

b. 804

c. 904

d. 1904

5. C

4120 – 3216 = 904

6. 2417 + 1004 =

a. 3401

b. 4321

c. 3402

d. 3421

6. D

2417 + 1004 = 3421

7. 1440 ÷ 12 =

7. B

a. 122

b. 120

c. 110

d. 132

1440 ÷ 12 = 120

8. 2713 – 1308 =

a. 1450

b. 1445

c. 1405

d. 1455

8. C

2713 – 1308 = 1405

9. It is known that x2+4x=5. Then x can be

a.0

b. -5

c.1

d. Either (b) or (c)

9. D

x2 +4x=5, x2+4x-5=0, x2+5x-x-5=0, factorize x(x+5)-1(x+5)=o, (x+5)(x-1)=0. x + 5 = 0 or x - 1

= 0, x = 0 - 5 or x = 0 + 1, x = -5 or x = 1, either b or c.

10. ( b)2 = 4ab. What is necessarily correct?

a. a > b

b. a < b>

10. C

c. a = b

d. None of the Above

Open parenthesis: 2a + 2b = 4ab, divide both sides by 2 = b=2ab or b=ab + ab, therefore

a=ab and b=ab, therefore a=b.

11. The sum of the digits of a 2-digit number is 12. If we switch the digits, the number we get

will be greater than the initial one by 36. Find the initial number.

a. 39

b. 48

c. 57

d. 75

11. B

Let the XY represent the initial number, X + Y = 12, YX=XY+ 36, Only b = 48 satisfies both

equations above from the given options.

12. Two friends traveled to a nearby city. In the second day they travelled 75 miles more than

the first day, and in the third day, they travelled a third of the distance covered in the second day.

How many miles did they cover in the first day, if the total travelled was 170 miles?

a. 30 miles

b. 35 miles

c. 105 miles

d. 135 miles

12. A

13. Kate’s father is 32 years older than Kate is. In 5 years, he will be five times older. How

old is Kate?

a.2

b.3

13. B

c.5

d.6

Let the father’s age=Y, and Kate’s age=X, therefore Y=32+X, in 5yrs y=5x,substituting for Y

will be 5x = 32+X, 5x – x = 32, 4X=32,X= 32/8, x = 8, Kate will be 8 in 5 yrs time, so Kate’s

present age = 8-5=3.

14. If Lynn can type a page in p minutes, what portion of the page can she do in 5 minutes?

a. 5/p

b. p - 5

c. p + 5

d. p/5

14. D

15. If Sally can paint a house in 4 hours, and John can paint the same house in 6 hours, how

long will it take for both of them to paint the house together?

a. 2 hours and 24 minutes

b. 3 hours and 12 minutes

c. 3 hours and 44 minutes

d. 4 hours and 10 minutes

15. A

Let X represent the house, Sally paints X in 4hrs or ¼ X per 1hr or 60 minutes, John paints X in

6 hours or at 1/6X per 1hr or 60mins. Working together, they will paint 1/4x + 1/6x in 1hr or

60minutes = 10/24x = 5/12x every 60 minutes, to paint x = 60 minutes x 12/5 = 144 minutes or 2

hrs and 24 minutes.
