  1. A cable is 3/4 inch thick. Another cable is 5/8 inch thick. What is the combined thickness?

    Answer: 1 3/8 inches

    3/4 + 5/8 = 6/8 + 5/8 = 11/8 = 1 3/8 inches.

  2. A technician uses 2.75 gallons of lubricant from a 10-gallon drum. How much remains?

    Answer: 7.25 gallons

    10.00 − 2.75 = 7.25 gallons remain.

  3. A counterweight travels 5/6 of its full path during a test. If the full path is 120 feet, how many feet did it travel?

    Answer: 100 feet

    5/6 × 120 = 600/6 = 100 feet.

  4. An elevator door takes 1.2 seconds to open and 0.85 seconds to close. What is the total cycle time?

    Answer: 2.05 seconds

    1.2 + 0.85 = 2.05 seconds total.

  5. A bolt requires 7/8 inch clearance. A gap measures 3/4 inch. By how much is the gap short?

    Answer: 1/8 inch

    7/8 − 3/4 = 7/8 − 6/8 = 1/8 inch short.

  6. A motor runs at 0.6 of its rated speed. If rated speed is 450 RPM, what is the actual speed?

    Answer: 270 RPM

    0.6 × 450 = 270 RPM.

  7. A technician splits a 3 1/2-hour job equally among 7 workers. How long does each worker spend?

    Answer: 1/2 hour

    3 1/2 ÷ 7 = 7/2 ÷ 7 = 7/14 = 1/2 hour each.
