8 bags
13 bags
4 bags
24 bags
Correct Answer : C
We need to perform a series of numerical dimensional analysis to find the number of bags sugar needed for 300 people.
We are told that 50 people need 4 cups of sugar. This can be interpretated as:
Or
Also, one bag of sugar contains 6 cups. This can also be presented as:
Or
We use the second option relating number of people and cups, and second option relating cups of sugar and bag of sugar to find for number of bags of sugar needed for 300 people.
Therefore, 300 people will need 4 bags of sugar.

Correct Answer is B
Explanation
Here we are required to find the area of the square of sides 3.1 m. The square is a four-sided figure with each side equal and opposite sides making 90 degrees.
Area of the square =side*side
Side=3.1 m
Area of the square =3.1 m *3.1 m=9.61 m2
Note: 3.1 + 3.1 = 6.2 which is a wrong answer.
Correct Answer is D
Explanation
The mean is the total divided by the number of elements in the data set. From the given data set:
Total=30+29+28+30+24+12+26+33+25+23=260
Number of items, N=10
Mean=total/N=260/10=26
The mean is 26.

First, convert 2 ¾ into an improper fraction.
Then,
Correct Answer is A
Explanation
to do a comparison of the given data set, we convert the fraction numbers into the approximate decimals.
4/3=1.333
2720=1.35
Now, we have 1.333, 1.35, 1.369, 1.357. These numbers are arranged from the smallest to the largest number, we look at the number in the second decimal place value
1.333 the number in second decimal place value is 3
1.35 the number in third decimal place value is 5
1.369 the number in third decimal place value is 6
1.357 the number in third decimal place value is 5
However, 1.35 and 1.357 have 5 in the second-place vale. We use the ird place value to compare the two number:
1.35 is same as 1.350 and the number in the third-place value is 0
1.357 the number in the third-place value is 7
Now, 0 is less than 7, and thus 1.35 is less than 1.357
Overall, 3 is less than 5, and 5 less than 6 and the provided numbers can be arranged from the smallest to the largest as:
1.333, 1.35, 1.357, 1.369
Thus, the corresponding given numbers organized from the smallest to the largest become:
4/3, 27/20, 1.357, 1.369
The greatest value is 1.369
Correct Answer is B
Explanation
The median temperature can be found by organizing the temperature values from the smallest to the largest value as follows:
98.6, 98.7, 99.0, 99.0,99.2, 99.3, 99.7, 100.0
(for an even set of numbers, Median = frac{(frac{n}{2})th observation + (frac{n}{2} + 1) th observation}{2})
From the data set above, there are 8temperature values. The median is the temperature value in the middle position, which falls between the(frac{n}{2} th)and((frac{n}{2} + 1) th) position. Here N=8and median is found as:
(frac{(frac{n}{2})th + (frac{n}{2} + 1) th}{2} = )(frac{(frac{8}{2})th + (frac{8}{2} + 1) th }{2} = 4.5th position)
The element in the 4.5th position is the average of the 4th and 5th element.
(frac{99.0 + 99.2}{2} = 99.1)
Thus 99.1 is the median temperature.
Correct Answer is D
Explanation
We can interpret ‘cannot exceed” as less than ‘<’. Therefore, in our inequality, the symbol < must be included. Now let’s convert the word problem into a mathematical inequality.
Money spent on supplies=s
Money spent on textbooks=t
Total money spent=money spent on supplies + money spent on textbooks
Total money spent = s+t
But the money spent cannot exceed $12,000. Then,
s+t <$12,000.
However the money spent can still be equal to $12000, as it has not exceeded it.
Therefore, therequired inequality is s + t <= $12,000.
Correct Answer is B
Explanation
From the given scenario:
Initial charge is $40
Additional charge per circular cloth=$5c
Additional charge per rectangular cloth=$3.50r
Total cost = additional charge per circular rectangular cloths + Initial charge
Total cost, T = 5c + 3.5r + 40
Correct Answer is A
Explanation
A whole pizza is equivalent to 1. Then
One friend eats half of the pizza=1/2 of 1=1/2*1=1/2
Remaining amount of pizza to be shared=1-1/2=2/2-1/2=1/2
Now, three friends share ½ equally and each friend will get,
Thus, the three friends each share 1/6.
Correct Answer is A
Explanation
From the given options, we can arrange the numbers from the smallest to the largest as:
-271.906, -193.823, 145.884, 235.971
From the above, it can be noted that -271 is less than -193 while 235 is more than 145.
