  1. A roll of wire is 60 meters long. How many 2.5-meter pieces can be cut from it?

    Answer: 24 pieces

    60 meters ÷ 2.5 meters = 24 pieces.

  2. An employee saves $75 each month. How much is saved in 1.5 years?

    Answer: $1,350

    1.5 years is 18 months, and $75 × 18 = $1,350.

  3. A mixture is 2 parts cement to 5 parts sand. For 35 pounds of sand, how much cement?

    Answer: 14 pounds

    Cement-to-sand is 2:5, so 35 × (2/5) = 14 pounds of cement.

  4. A $1,500 invoice has a 2% early-payment discount. What is the discounted amount due?

    Answer: $1,470

    2% of $1,500 is $30, so $1,500 − $30 = $1,470.

  5. A temperature rises from 68°F to 86°F. What is the increase?

    Answer: 18 degrees

    86 − 68 = 18 degrees.

  6. A worker fills 45 boxes in 3 hours. At this rate, how many in a full 8-hour day?

    Answer: 120 boxes

    The rate is 15 boxes per hour, and 15 × 8 = 120 boxes.

  7. A circle-shaped lid has a radius of 7 inches. What is its approximate area? (use π ≈ 22/7)

    Answer: 154 square inches

    Area = πr² = (22/7)(7²) = 22 × 7 = 154 square inches.
