  1. A store marks up items by 40% then offers a 20% discount. What is the net effect on the original price?

    Answer: 12% increase

    1.40 × 0.80 = 1.12, which is a 12% net increase over the original price.

  2. What comes next in the series: 3, 6, 12, 24, 48, ___?

    Answer: 96

    Each term doubles the previous one, so 48 × 2 = 96.

  3. If 5 workers complete a job in 8 days, how many days will 10 workers take to complete the same job?

    Answer: 4 days

    Total work = 5 × 8 = 40 worker-days; 40 ÷ 10 workers = 4 days.

  4. What is 15% of 240?

    Answer: 36

    15% of 240 = 0.15 × 240 = 36.

  5. A car travels 180 miles in 3 hours. At the same speed, how far will it travel in 5 hours?

    Answer: 300 miles

    Speed = 180 ÷ 3 = 60 mph; distance in 5 hours = 60 × 5 = 300 miles.

  6. Which fraction is largest: 3/7, 4/9, 5/11, or 2/5?

    Answer: 5/11

    Converting to decimals: 3/7≈0.429, 4/9≈0.444, 5/11≈0.455, 2/5=0.400; so 5/11 is the largest.

  7. A rectangle has a perimeter of 54 cm. If its length is twice its width, what is its area?

    Answer: 162 sq cm

    2(w + 2w) = 54 gives w = 9, l = 18; area = 9 × 18 = 162 sq cm.
