Simplify
20 % - CORRECT ANSWER 5 %
250,000 - CORRECT ANSWER 150,
Total investment - 200,000 + 500,000 + 800,000 + 500,000 = $2,000, The portion of investor A in the total investment - 200,000 / 2,000,000 = 10% Proportional profit of investor A - 1,000,000 x 10% = $100, Equally divided profit - 1,000,000 / 4 = $250, The difference - 250,000 - 100,000 = $150,000 The words GAWKY and MALADROIT have ? meanings.

First, you need to process the data in the question and put together 2 equations with 2 variables. The two variables are the number of fruits that Emma and Anna bought. For the sake of convenience, we will mark Emmas number of fruits or units with E and Annas number of fruits with A. E + A = 25 Since we know that they both bought 25 fruits, the first equation will be: E
- A = 25 Now we will assemble the second equation: We know that Emma paid 2$ per unit and Anna paid 3$ per unit and the total was 60$. So the equation will be: 2 x E + 3 x A = 60 Now we will isolate E from the first equation in order to create one equation with one variable. E = 25 - A Now let's insert this instead of E in the second equation: 2(25 - A) + 3A = 60 50 - 2A + 3A = 60 50 + 1A = 60 A = 10 The correct answer is Anna got 10 oranges. A shop owner bought some shovels for $5,500. The shovels were sold for $7,300, with a profit Emma and Anna went to the market to buy 25 fruits. Emma got a few apples that cost $ each, and Anna bought some oranges which cost $3 each. If their comb ined total is $60, how many oranges did Anna get? 5 10 15 20 25 - CORRECT ANSWER 10 The eleventh month of the year is: A. January B. November C. October D. May - CORRECT ANSWER The correct answer is (B). The eleventh month of the year is November.
of $50 per a shovel. How many shovels were involved? A. 18 B. 36 C. 55 D. 73 E. 90 F. None of these - CORRECT ANSWER The correct answer is (B). The total profit from the sale is the selling price minus the cost of purchase, which is $7300-$5500= $1800.If the total profit is $1800 and each shovel accounts for $50 profit, the amount of shovels is 1800/50=36. How many states are there in the U.S.A? A. 20 B. 30 C. 40 D. 50 E. 60 - CORRECT ANSWER The correct answer is (D). The USA has 50 states. There are three times elephants compared to giraffes in the safari. If there is a total of 88 elephants and giraffes, how many elephants are there in the safari? A. 22 B. 31 C. 43 D. 59 E. 66 F. None of these - CORRECT ANSWER The correct answer is (E). If there are 3 times as many elephants as there are giraffes, giraffes can be defined as X, and elephants as 3X, and build the following equation: 3X + X = 88 4X = 88 X = 88/ X = 22 As stated above, X stands for the number of giraffes. Thus, there are 22 giraffes. As mentioned in the problem, there are three times as many elephants as there are giraffes in the safari. Thus, to find how many elephants there are in the safari, multiply the number of giraffes by 3: 22 * 3 = 66 66 is the number of elephants in the safari.
the used cars as U (with a price of 7 each) and the new cars as N (with a price of 16 each) Now we can build two equations, the first representing the total price and the second the total amount of cars: a. 7U+16N= b. N+U= 17 So according to the second equation N = 17-U, and we can now substitute N in the first equation: 7U+16(17-U)=191 ; 7U+272-16U=191 ; 9U=81 ; U=9. 9 used cars were sold. Solving Tip: You could try solving this question by elimination. For starters, since 191 is an odd number and 16 is an even number, then the number of used cars must be odd (even+odd=odd) - which means we can eliminate answers A, D & E. Now that we are left only with B and C, let's try to calculate it for each of these options: . 37 + 16(17-3) = 245, which means we can eliminate B as an answer. . 57 + 16(17-5) = 227, which means we can eliminate C as an answer. Therefore, the only possible answer is F - none of the above. Joey got a 25% raise to his salary. If his original salary was $1,200, how much was it after the raise was implemented? A. $ B. $ C. $ D. $ E. $ F. None of these - CORRECT ANSWER The correct answer is (B). 25% equals one quarter and a quarter of 1200 is 1200/4=300. Therefore, an addition of a quarter to 1200 equals 1200+300=1500. Arrange the following words so that they make a complete sentence. Is the rearranged sentence true or false?

An oven can bake 8 pies of thin crust pizza per hour, or 2 pies of deep dish pizza pies per hour. How many hours will it take to prepare an order of 16 thin crust pies and 4 pies of deep dish? A. 4 hours B. 2.5 hours C. 2 hours D. 1 hours - CORRECT ANSWER The correct answer is (A). Time = work/rate In order to calculate how long it would take to prepare 16 thin crusts, we need to divide 16 by the rate of thin crusts per hour. 16 thin crust pies/8 thin crust pies per hour = 2 hours Similarly, to calculate how long it would take to prepare 4 deep dish pies, we need to divide 4 by the rate of deep dish pies per hour. 4 deep dish pies/2 deep dish pies per hour = 2 hours The number of hours it will take to complete the order is 2 hours + 2 hours = 4 hours John's gross pay for the past month is $4687.24.

After two hours she accelerated to 65 miles per hour for another full hour. What is the distance between those cities? A. 150 miles B. 180 miles C. 165 miles D. 185 miles E. None of the above - CORRECT ANSWER The correct answer is (D). In order to solve the question, we need to separate the two stages. The first stage is: the two-hour ride at a rate of 60 mph; the second stage is the one-hour ride at a rate of 65 mph.
Time (hours) Speed Distance Stage 1 3 X 3X Stage 2? 2X 3X If we sum up the distance of both stages, we will find the distance between the cities. The first stage is calculated using the formula Time * Speed = Distance: 2 hours X 60 miles per hour=120 miles The second stage is calculated using the same formula: 1 hour X 65 miles per hour=65 miles Therefore, the total distance between the cities is 120 miles + 65 miles = 185 miles. In the stock market, four different stocks have an average price of $100 per stock. The price of a Drone stock is $70.

In order to calculate an average, we have to know the sum of the individual values, and the number of individuals. We know that there are four different stocks, so the number of individuals is four (Number of individuals). Now, find the sum of the prices of all the stocks (Sum of the individuals' value). We can calculate the sum of the group's value with the average of the values: Sum of all the values ------------------------ = Average Number of Values Let's insert the figures that we know into the formula. Sum of all values ---------------------- = 100 Dollars 4 Sum of all values = 400 Dollars
