Correct Answer is A
Explanation
we are asked to find the largest value from the options given. To solve this problem, we need to convert all the given values into fraction. Then find the least common denominator for all fractions, which we will use to multiply each fraction and make a comparison.
43÷
55=43/55
5/7
0.729=729/1000
73%=73/100
Now, we need to find the least common denominator of 55, 7, 1000, and 100, which is 77000. We multiply each fraction by 77000 as follows:
43/55*77000=60200
5/7*77000=55000
729/1000*77000=56133
73/100*77000=56210
From the calculated values, it can be noted that 43/55 is the greatest value among the given options.
Correct Answer is D
Explanation
The babies' measured weights change over time and depend on the time interval after birth. Since weight is the outcome being measured, it is the dependent variable in the study.
Correct Answer is D
Explanation
Before we compare the values of the options, we convert the decimals to fractions.
5.4 becomes 54/10
6.25 becomes 625/100
Thus, the set of fractions is 11/2, 54/10, 13/3, 625/100. The least common denominator for 2, 10, 3, and 100 is 300, which we use to compare each options given.
11/2*300=1650
54/10*300=1620
13/3*300=1300
625/100*300=1875
From the above, 1875 is the greatest value which corresponds to 6.25. Therefore, 6.25 is the greatest value of all the choices given.
Correct Answer is C
Explanation
from the given data, one gallon of cleaning solution requires 6 oz of ammonia. The mathematical expression of this statement can be expressed in two ways:

Or

The question requires we find the amount of ammonia needed to make 230 gallons of the solution. So, we use the second option and proceed as follows:

From the above equation, gallon of solution will cancel, and oz of ammonia is left.
Therefore, the solution will require 1380 oz of ammonia.
Correct Answer is D
Explanation
: the question requires we find the cost of four syringes.
If we let x be the cost of four syringes, then we set up a proportion equation with cost as numerator and number of syringes as denominator. The proportion equation becomes

Cross-multiply to solve for x


Rearranging the above

Divide both sides of the equation by 55


Thus, the cost of 4 syringes is $48.
Correct Answer is D
Explanation
: we are needed to find the portion of burger the two other friends share between themselves. A whole burger is 1, and we know that,
One friend=1/4 of 1=1/4*1=1/4
Remaining amount=1-1/4=4/4-1/4=3/4
Thus, ¾ of burger is left for two friends to share among themselves. Then, each friend will get

So, the other two friends will each get 3/8 of the burger.
Correct Answer is D
Explanation
to convert fraction to percent, multiply the fraction with 100%. Therefore, the percent equivalent of 3/4 is
3/4*100%=75%
Thus, 3/4is equal to 75%.
Correct Answer is D
Explanation
Let's calculate the number of each color of gumball:
- Red: 20% of 120 → 0.2×120=24
- Orange: 30% of 120 → 0.3×120=36
- Yellow: 5% of 120 → 0.05×120=6
- Green: 10% of 120 → 0.1×120=12
- Blue: The remaining percentage: 100%−(20%+30%+5%+10%) = 100%−65% =35%
- So, 0.35×120=42 blue gumballs.
Now, we find how many more blue gumballs there are than yellow:
42−6=36
Correct Answer is C
Explanation
We know that 1 L =1000 mL, which we use to convert between the two units. The conversion fractions of interconverting are:

And

Since we want to end up with millimeters, the second conversion is used in converting L to mL as:

Thus, 3.2 L is equivalent to 3200 mL.
Correct Answer is A
Explanation
We convert the given word problem into a mathematical expression.
Let the number be x.
Thrice a number = 3x
Twelve less than thrice a number = 3x-12
Thus, the required mathematical expression is 3x-12
