  1. A package weighs 2 pounds 12 ounces. What is the total weight in ounces?

    Answer: 44

    Two pounds equals 32 ounces, plus 12 ounces gives a total of 44 ounces.

  2. An office receives 1,260 pieces of mail over 5 days. If Tuesday's count was 315, what percentage of the weekly total arrived on Tuesday?

    Answer: 25%

    Dividing 315 by 1,260 equals 0.25, which is 25%.

  3. A clerk must collate 480 packets. After completing 3/8 of the task, how many packets still need to be collated?

    Answer: 300

    Completing 3/8 of 480 means 180 are done, leaving 480 minus 180 which equals 300.

  4. Office supplies cost $245.60 before a 15% discount. What is the final price after the discount?

    Answer: $208.76

    A 15% discount on $245.60 is $36.84, so the final price is $245.60 minus $36.84 which equals $208.76.

  5. A data entry clerk types 4,230 records in 6 hours. What is the average number of records typed per hour?

    Answer: 705

    Dividing 4,230 by 6 equals 705 records per hour.

  6. Three clerks split overtime hours in a ratio of 2:3:5. If total overtime is 30 hours, how many hours does the clerk with the largest share receive?

    Answer: 15

    The total ratio parts are 2+3+5=10, and the largest share is 5/10 of 30, which equals 15 hours.
