Question 1 of 5
What number is 98 175% of?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: To find the number that 98 is 175% of, we can set up the equation: x = 1.75 * x. By solving this equation, we get x = 56. Therefore, 98 is 175% of 56. Choice D, 56, is the correct answer as it represents the number that satisfies the given condition. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect as they do not result in 98 when multiplied by 1.75.
Question 2 of 5
Express the ratio of 25:80 as a percentage.
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: To express the ratio 25:80 as a percentage, follow these steps: First, divide 25 by 80: 25/80 = 0.3125. Then, multiply by 100 to convert to a percentage: 0.3125 100 = 31.25%. Therefore, the ratio 25:80 is equivalent to 31.25%. Choice A is correct. Choice B (34%) is incorrect because it does not accurately represent the ratio 25:80. Choice C (41.25%) and Choice D (43.75%) are also incorrect as they do not match the calculated percentage for the given ratio.
Question 3 of 5
If a package of 10 pencils is divided between every 2 students in a class with 20 students, how many pencils are needed?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: If 20 students are divided into pairs, there would be 10 pairs in total (20 students / 2 = 10 pairs). Since each pair receives 10 pencils, the total number of pencils needed is calculated by multiplying the number of pairs (10 pairs) by the number of pencils each pair receives (10 pencils per pair), resulting in 100 pencils required. Therefore, the correct answer is 100 pencils. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because they do not consider the correct pairing of students or the total number of pencils needed for each pair.
