  1. A pie chart shows 30% of a company's budget goes to marketing. If the total budget is $500,000, how much is spent on marketing?

    Answer: $150,000

    30% of $500,000 = 0.30 × 500,000 = $150,000.

  2. The mode of the dataset {4, 7, 2, 7, 9, 4, 7} is:

    Answer: 7

    7 appears three times, more than any other value, so the mode is 7.

  3. A student scored 78, 85, 90, and 67 on four tests. What score is needed on a fifth test to average 80?

    Answer: 80

    Total needed = 80 × 5 = 400; current sum = 78+85+90+67 = 320; needed = 400 − 320 = 80.

  4. A line graph shows temperatures: Mon 68°, Tue 72°, Wed 65°, Thu 70°, Fri 75°. What is the range?

    Answer: 10°

    Range = maximum − minimum = 75 − 65 = 10°.

  5. If a store marks up an item by 40% and the original cost is $30, what is the selling price?

    Answer: $42

    Markup = 40% of $30 = $12; selling price = $30 + $12 = $42.

  6. A recipe calls for 2.5 cups of flour per dozen cookies. How much flour is needed for 60 cookies?

    Answer: 12.5 cups

    60 cookies = 5 dozens; flour needed = 5 × 2.5 = 12.5 cups.
