  1. A shift starts at 7:45 AM and ends at 4:15 PM with a 30-minute unpaid lunch. How many paid hours are worked?

    Answer: 8 hours

    7:45 AM to 4:15 PM is 8.5 hours minus the 30-minute lunch = 8 hours.

  2. A machine produces 320 parts per hour. How many parts does it make in a 6.5-hour run?

    Answer: 2,080

    320 × 6.5 = 2,080 parts.

  3. A bag of cement covers 40 square feet. How many bags are needed to cover 300 square feet?

    Answer: 8 bags

    300 ÷ 40 = 7.5, so 8 bags are needed to fully cover.

  4. An employee's pay rises from $15 to $18 per hour. What is the percent increase?

    Answer: 20%

    The $3 increase ÷ $15 = 0.20, or 20%.

  5. A delivery route has 4 stops, each 7.5 miles apart, ending back at the start 5 miles away. What is the total distance?

    Answer: 35 miles

    4 × 7.5 = 30 miles plus the 5-mile return = 35 miles.

  6. A worker mixes a solution using 1 part chemical to 9 parts water for 50 liters total. How much chemical is used?

    Answer: 5 liters

    1 of 10 total parts, so 50 ÷ 10 = 5 liters of chemical.

  7. A budget of $4,800 is split equally among 6 departments. How much does each receive?

    Answer: $800

    $4,800 ÷ 6 = $800.
