Math Quiz 70: Problem Set Overview
To find how many 25-centavo pieces make up 75 pesos, first convert pesos to centavos, as 1 peso = 100 centavos. Thus, 75 pesos = 7,500 centavos. Then, divide 7,500 by 25, as each piece is 25 centavos. The calculation 7,500 ÷ 25 results in 300 pieces .
Given the circumference (C) of a circle is 26.4 cm, use the formula C = πd where d is the diameter. With π approximated as 22/7, rearrange to find d: d = C/π = 26.4 / (22/7). Simplifying, d = 8.4 cm, so the diameter is 8.4 cm .
The greatest common factor (GCF) of 45, 75, and 120 is determined by identifying the highest number that divides all three numbers without a remainder. Start with the prime factorizations: 45 = 3² x 5, 75 = 3 x 5², and 120 = 2³ x 3 x 5. The common prime factor is 3 and 5, and the lowest powers are 3¹ and 5¹. Therefore, the GCF is 3 x 5 = 15 .
To find the number of pupils under 11 years old, calculate 44% of 225 pupils. This is done by (44/100) x 225 = 99 pupils. Therefore, 99 pupils are under 11 years old .
To determine the stretch distance for a 50-kilogram weight, calculate how much the spring stretches per 10 kilograms: 0.5 cm per 10 kg. For 50 kilograms: (50 kg ÷ 10 kg) x 0.5 cm = 5 x 0.5 cm = 2.5 cm. Hence, the spring stretches 2.5 cm .
In a right triangle, the sum of all angles is 180 degrees, with one angle being 90 degrees. Given angle A as 45 degrees, angle B is determined by subtracting the sum of the other two angles from 180: 180 - 90 - 45 = 45 degrees. Therefore, angle B is 45 degrees .
To convert the expression 6 x 10^6 + 6 x 10^4 + 6 x 10^2 into a single number, evaluate each term: 6 x 10^6 = 6,000,000, 6 x 10^4 = 60,000, and 6 x 10^2 = 600. Sum these values to get 6,060,600 .
To calculate the percentage of students on the honor roll, divide the number of honor roll students (25) by the total number of students (40) and multiply by 100. This gives (25/40) x 100 = 62.5% .
To find the winning percentage, first determine the number of games won: 60 total games - 15 lost games = 45 won games. The winning percentage is (45/60) x 100% = 75% .
The perimeter (P) of a square is 4 times the side length (s). For P = 19.2, solve 4s = 19.2 to find s. Dividing both sides by 4 gives s = 19.2/4 = 4.8 units, so one side is 4.8 units long .
