  1. A warehouse worker earns $14.75 per hour and works 38 hours in a week. What is their total gross pay?

    Answer: $560.50

    $14.75 × 38 = $560.50 gross pay for the week.

  2. A recipe calls for 2.5 cups of flour to make 24 cookies. How many cups are needed to make 60 cookies?

    Answer: 6.25 cups

    Set up the proportion: 2.5/24 = x/60, so x = (2.5 × 60)/24 = 6.25 cups.

  3. A storage room is 12 feet long, 9 feet wide, and 8 feet tall. What is the volume in cubic feet?

    Answer: 864 cu ft

    Volume = length × width × height = 12 × 9 × 8 = 864 cubic feet.

  4. An item originally priced at $84 is on sale for 25% off. What is the sale price?

    Answer: $63.00

    25% of $84 = $21 discount; $84 − $21 = $63.00 sale price.

  5. A truck travels 315 miles on 15 gallons of fuel. How many miles per gallon does it get?

    Answer: 21 mpg

    315 ÷ 15 = 21 miles per gallon.

  6. A worker completes 1/3 of a task on Monday and 2/5 on Tuesday. What fraction remains?

    Answer: 4/15

    1/3 + 2/5 = 5/15 + 6/15 = 11/15 done; 15/15 − 11/15 = 4/15 remaining.
