  1. A phone plan charges $25 per month plus $0.10 per text message. If David sends 80 texts in a month, what is his bill?

    Answer: $33

    $25 + (80 × $0.10) = $25 + $8 = $33.

  2. If a faucet leaks 2 cups of water per hour, how many gallons will it waste in one day? (16 cups = 1 gallon)

    Answer: 3 gallons

    2 cups/hr × 24 hr = 48 cups; 48 ÷ 16 = 3 gallons.

  3. Two friends share a pizza. One eats ⅜ and the other eats ½. What fraction of the pizza is left?

    Answer: ⅛

    ⅜ + ½ = ⅜ + 4/8 = 7/8 eaten; 1 − 7/8 = 1/8 remaining.

  4. A movie theater sold 320 tickets on Friday and 15% more on Saturday. How many tickets were sold on Saturday?

    Answer: 368

    15% of 320 = 48; 320 + 48 = 368 tickets on Saturday.

  5. A stack of books is 60 cm tall. Each book is 2.4 cm thick. How many books are in the stack?

    Answer: 25

    60 ÷ 2.4 = 25 books in the stack.

  6. A store bought 50 items at $4 each and sold them all at $7 each. What was the total profit?

    Answer: $150

    Profit per item = $7 − $4 = $3; total profit = 50 × $3 = $150.

  7. A temperature drops from 68°F to 53°F overnight. By how many degrees did it drop?
