John bought a camera on sale that normally costs $160. If the price was reduced
20% during the sale, what was the sale price of the camera?
(a) $120
(b) $124
(c) $128
(d) $140 - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔(c) $128
,This question asks you to determine the sale price of a camera that normally sells
at $160 and is discounted 20%. To solve, determine what 20% of $160 equals.
Rewrite 20% as a decimal.
20% = 0.20. So 20% of $160 = 0.20 x $160 = $32.
The sale price of the camera would be $160 - $32 = $128, choice (c)
A subway car passes 3 stations every 10 minutes. At this rate, how many stations
will it pass in one hour?
(a) 15
(b) 18
(c) 20
(d) 30 - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔(b) 18
First, set up the rate as a proportion, where (x) is the number of stations.
3 stations/10 minutes = (x) stations/1 hour
,Then, convert the units.
3 stations/10 minutes = (x) stations/60 minutes
Cross multiply and solve for (x).
180 = 10(x)
18 = (x)
On a certain map, 3/4 inch represents one mile. What distance, in miles, is

, (d) 5 1/4 - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔(b) 2 1/3
In this question, the ratio is implied: for every 3/4 inch of map there is 1 real mile,
so the ratio of inches to the miles they represent is always 3/4 to 1. Therefore, you
can set up the proportion:
number of inches/ number of miles = 3/ = 3/4
Now 1 3/4 inches = 7/4 inches.
Set up a proportion:
7/4 inches
7/4 inches / number of miles = 3/4
