A child has a bottle full of pennies, nickels, dimes, and quarters. There are twice as many quarters as pennies, four times as many as nickels as pennies, and five times as many dimes as nickels. How many more dimes does the child have than quarters?
4 times as many
5 times as many
20 times as many
10 times as many
Correct Answer : D
In this problem, we need to compare the number of dimes to quarters.
If we let n be number of pennies in the bottle. Then,
Number of quarters in the bottle = 2n
Number of nickels in the bottle = 4n
Number of dimes in the bottle =5(4n)=20n
Now relating dimes to quarters, we have

Thus, there are 10 times as many dimes as quarters in the box.

Correct Answer is C
Explanation
We are asked to find the number of gallons full tank can hold. The fraction of full tank is 1.
First, we let x be the number of gallons in full tank. Then, set the proportion equation by setting the number of gallons on the numerator and fraction of tank on denominator as follows.

Convert the mixed fraction into proper fraction and cross-multiply to find the value of x.



Converting 42/5 to a mixed fraction is 8 2/5. Thus, when the tank is full, it holds 8 2/5 gallons of water.
Correct Answer is A
Explanation
The mean of a data set is the total scores divided by the number of tests.
Total test scores =100+78+47+84+93+78=480
Number of tests =6
Mean test score =480/6=80
The mean test score is 80.
Correct Answer is A
Explanation
To find the greatest number from the given options, we first convert the decimal numbers into fractions.
-0.7 becomes 7/10
-1.3 becomes 13/10
Then, we find the LCM for the denominators of the given fractions. The LCM of 3 and 10 is 30. Now we can multiply each fraction with the LCM.
-2/3*30=-20
-7/10*30=-70
-13/10*30=-39
-4/3*30=-40
Comparing the obtained values from above, -20 is the greatest followed by -39, -40, -70 in that order. The fraction -2/3 gave a value of -20, which was the greatest value. Thus, -2/3 is the greatest value from the given option.

Explanation
We are asked to find the number of cups of flour that will be used to make 90 cookies.
Letting x be the number of cups of flour and setting the proportion equation with number of cookies on numerator and number of cups of flour on the denominator. We have

Solve the value of x by cross-multiplying

We convert the mixed fraction into improper fraction in order to carry out multiplication

\(x =\ \frac{9}{4}\ cups\ *\ 90\ cookies\ *\ \frac{1}{36}\ cookies\)
The number of cups of flour needed to make 90 cookies is 5.625 cups, which is equal to 5 5/8 cups(Choice B).
Correct Answer is C
Explanation
We are asked to find the dependent variable from the given scenario. A dependent variable is one which varies with another variable. In this case, the cost of the pizza will change with the change in diameter of the pizza, number of toppings, and amount of cheese. In other words, the cost of the pizza depends on the three variables.
Therefore, cost is the dependent variable while the diameter of the pizza, number of toppings and amount of cheese are independent variables.
Correct Answer is C

We are asked to find the Kwame’s uncle’s age in terms of Kwame’s age.
First, we need to find the age of Kwame, which is k. Then, we know that Kwame’s uncle’s age is three times that of Kwame less 17. Then,
Kwame’s uncle’s age, u = 3k-17.
Thus, the relation that relates Kwame’s uncle’s age to that of Kwame is u=3k-17.
