COLLEGE MATH PLACEMENT TEST WITH COMPLETE SOLUTIONS 100% 2023/2024 Set up the multiplication vertically. Remember to insert a place holder of 0 when you multiply 416 by 7. Answer is 29,120. 416 × 70 = A. 29,536 B. 29,120 C. 486 D. 2,912 E. None of these Start by writing four and two fifths as an improper fraction: 4 2/5 = 22/5 Subtract, and then write the answer as a mixed number: 22/5 − 35 = 22 − 3/5 = 19/5 = 3 4/5 4 2/5 − 3/5 = A. 3 4/5 B. 1 1/5 C. 3 1/5 D. 2 1/5 E. None of these The denominator of each fraction is 5. Since the denominators are the same, just subtract the numerators: 4/5 − 1/5 = 4 − 1 /5 = 3/5 4/5 − 1/5 = A. 3/5 B. 1 C. 4 D. 1/5 E. None of these The number 4 can be written as 4/1, which has the same value as 12/3: 4 − 1/3 = 12/3 − 1/3 = 11/3 = 3 2/3. 4 − 1/3 = A. 3 2/3 B. 1/3 C. 3 D. 2/3 E. None of these Use long division: 5 goes into 661 132 times, with a remainder of 1.Use long division: 5 goes into 661 132 times, with a remainder of 1. 5 /661 = A. 130; R5 B. 132; R1 C. 132; R2 D. 130; R3 E. None of these The three fractions have a common denominator of 5. Just add the numerators. 1/5 + 1/5 + 2/5 = 1 + 1 + 2/5 = 4/5 This is not one of the answer choices: None of these 1/5 + 1/5 + 2/5 = A. 4/15 B. 3/5 C. 1/5 D. 2/5 E. None of these Write each mixed number as an improper fraction. Then, get a common denominator (which is 10). 11/2 + 39/10 = 55/10 + 39/10 = 55 + 39/10 = 9 4/10 = 9 2/5 5 1/2 + 3 9/10 = A. 8 1/5 B. 9 2/5 C. 8 2/5 D. 9 1/5 E. None of these Write the subtraction vertically. In the ones column, 8 can't be subtracted from 4, so we borrow a 10 from the tens column. Answer is $6.50 $14.50 − $8.00 = A. $7.50 B. $6.50 C. $0.65 D. $4.65 E. None of these Line up the decimals at the decimal point. In the tenths column, 9 + 5 = 14, so we write the 4 and carry the 1 to the ones column. Answer is 23.4 22.9 + 0.5 = A. 2.34 B. 22.4 C. 23.4 D. 24.3 E. None of these To multiply decimals, multiply as you would if they were whole numbers. After multiplying, move the decimal 3 places to the left: The answer is: 0.729 Multiply without using a calculator. A. 3.645 B. 7.209 C. 0.737 D. 0.729 The total earnings will be base salary plus commission. The base salary is $10,000. The commission is 15% of $90,000, or $13,500. The total base salary plus commission is $23,500. This table is used to calculate annual commissions and salaries for car salespeople. What would the total yearly earnings of a sales assistant be who has $90,000 in sales? A. $29,400 B. $24,675 C. $23,500 D. $15,750 To convert the percent to a decimal, divide by 100 and drop the percent sign. Then, "of" is a keyword meaning to multiply. 0.0015(6,000) = 9 6,000 − 9 = 5991 gears The failure rate of gears from a factory is 0.15%. Out of 6000 gears produced on Tuesday, how many are expected to function properly? A. 3000 gears B. 5100 gears C. 5910 gears D. 5991 gears .20 multiplied by the total amount would represent his savings. Tim is a member of an animal rescue organization.

If Tim's total purchase price was $42.50, which of the following expressions would represent the savings from his discount? A. d × .20 B. d × 20 C. d ÷ .20 D. d ÷ 20 Convert 5% to a decimal. Then, let x be the total profit. Your equation is 0.05x ÷ 12 = 2300 First multiply both sides by 12, then divide by 0.05. 0.05x ÷ 12 = 2300 0.05x = 27600 x = $552,000 Lynh's total profit was $552,000.
