Answer is 29,120. - ANS-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 - ANS-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 - ANS-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. - ANS-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. - ANS-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 - ANS-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 - ANS-5 1/2 + 3 9/10 =

A. 8 1/5


B. 9 2/5


C. 8 2/5
