Example Questions

Example Question #52 : Percentage

Assorted 1

What percent of the above figures have been shaded in?

Possible Answers:

$66 \frac{2}{3} \%$

$41 \frac{2}{3} \%$

$58 \frac{1}{3} \%$

$33 \frac{1}{3} \%$

Correct answer:

$41 \frac{2}{3} \%$

Explanation:

There are twelve figures, five of which have been shaded in, so $\frac{5}{12}$ of the figures are shaded; this is

$\frac{5}{12} \times 100 \% = \frac{500}{12} \% = \frac{125}{3} \%$

Since $125\div 3 = 41 \textrm{ R }2$ , this is equal to $41 \frac{2}{3} \%$ of the figure.

Example Question #53 : Percentage

is 30% of and 60% of .

What percent of is ?

Possible Answers:

$90 \%$

$50 \%$

$200 \%$

$30 \%$

Correct answer:

$50 \%$

Explanation:

is 30% of , so

$F = \frac{30}{100}G$

$F = \frac{3}{10}G$

$\frac{10} {3} \cdot F = \frac{10} {3} \cdot \frac{3}{10}G$

$\frac{10} {3} F = G$

is 60% of , so

$F = \frac{60}{100}H$

$F = \frac{3}{5}H$

$\frac{5} {3} \cdot F = \frac{5} {3} \cdot \frac{3}{5}H$

$\frac{5} {3} F = H$

To determine what percent of is, evaluate:

$\frac{H}{G} \cdot 100 \%$

$=\frac{\frac{5} {3} F }{ \frac{10} {3} F} \cdot 100 \%$

$=\frac{\frac{5} {3} }{ \frac{10} {3} } \cdot 100 \%$

$= \frac{5} {3} \cdot \frac {3}{10} \cdot 100 \%$

$= \frac{1,500} {30} \%$

$= 50 \%$

Example Question #2051 : Ssat Middle Level Quantitative (Math)

Assorted 1

What percent of the above figures are circles?

Possible Answers:

$50 \%$

$75 \%$

$25 \%$

$40 \%$

Correct answer:

$50 \%$

Explanation:

There are twelve figures, six of which are circles. This is

$\frac{6}{12} \times 100 \% = \frac{600}{12} \% = 50 \%$

of the figures.

Example Question #55 : Percentage

is $\frac{1}{2} \%$ of .

is 2.5 % of .

What percent of is ?

Possible Answers:

$20 \%$

$500 \%$

$1 \frac{1}{4} \%$

$5 \%$

Correct answer:

$500 \%$

Explanation:

For the sake of simplicity, since this reasoning is independent of the actual value of , we will assume that C = 100 . Then is $\frac{1}{2} \%$ of 100, or simply $\frac{1}{2} = 0.5$ , and is 2.5% of 100, or simply 2.5. To find out what percent is of , evaluate:

$\frac{B}{A} \cdot 100 \% = \frac{2.5}{0.5} \cdot 100 \% = 5 \cdot 100 \% = 500 \%$

Example Question #56 : Percentage

is 20% of and $\frac{1}{4} \%$ of .

What percent of is ?

Possible Answers:

$1 \frac{1}{4} \%$

$8,000 \%$

$80 \%$

$5 \%$

Correct answer:

$1 \frac{1}{4} \%$

Explanation:

20% of a number is $\frac{20}{100} = \frac{1}{5}$ of that number, so $S = \frac{1}{5} T$ . Equivalently,

$5 \cdot S =5 \cdot \frac{1}{5} T$

5S = T

$\frac{1}{4} \%$ of a number is $\frac{\frac{1}{4}}{100} = \frac{1}{4} \div 100 = \frac{1}{4} \times \frac{1}{100} = \frac{1}{4 00}$ of that number, so $S = \frac{1}{400 } U$ . Equivalently,

$400 \cdot S =400 \cdot \frac{1}{400 } U$

400 S = U

To find out what percent is of , evaluate:

$\frac{T}{U}\cdot 100 \% = \frac{5S}{400S} \cdot 100 \% = \frac{5}{400} \cdot 100 \% = \frac{500}{400} \% = \frac{5}{4} \% = 1 \frac{1}{4} \%$

Example Question #57 : Percentage

is 40% of . is 72% of .

What percent of is ?

Possible Answers:

$180 \%$

$112 \%$

$32 \%$

$55 \frac{5}{9} \%$

Correct answer:

$55 \frac{5}{9} \%$

Explanation:

is 40 % of , or $K = \frac{40}{100} L$ ; is 72% of , or $M = \frac{72}{100} L$ .

To find out what percent is of , evaluate:

$\frac{K}{M} \cdot 100 \%$

$= \frac{ \frac{40}{100} L }{ \frac{72}{100} L} \cdot 100 \%$

$= \frac{ \frac{40}{100} }{ \frac{72}{100} } \cdot 100 \%$

$= \frac{40 }{ 72} \cdot 100 \%$

$= \frac{5}{9} \cdot 100 \%$

$= \frac{500}{9} \%$

$= 55 \frac{5}{9} \%$ .

Example Question #1 : How To Find The Distributive Property

$3\times(4+\frac{1}{3})= ?$

Possible Answers:

$15+\frac{2}{3}$

$12+\frac{1}{3}$

Correct answer:

Explanation:

Using the distributive property we get: $(3\times4)+(3\times \frac{1}{3})=12+1=13$

Example Question #1392 : Numbers And Operations

Which of the following expressions is equivalent to the expression -6 (-3x+7) ?

Possible Answers:

-18x - 42

18x +42

18x -7

18x - 42

18x +7

Correct answer:

18x - 42

Explanation:

By the distributive property of multiplication over addition,

$-6 (-3x+7) = -6 \cdot (-3x) +(-6)\cdot 7 = 18x + (-42)= 18x - 42$

Example Question #1393 : Numbers And Operations

Which of the following expressions is equivalent to the expression 8 (-2x+7) ?

Possible Answers:

-16x+7

-16x+56

16x-7

16x+7

-16x-56

Correct answer:

-16x+56

Explanation:

By the distributive property of multiplication over addition,

$8 (-2x+7) = 8 (-2x)+8\cdot 7 = -16x + 56$

Example Question #4 : Distributive Property

Simplify the expression: 11y - 3y + 4y

Possible Answers:

-132y

18y

-132y^3

12y

Correct answer:

12y

Explanation:

Apply the distributive property:

11y - 3y + 4y

$= \left (11 - 3 + 4 \right ) y$

$= \left (8 + 4 \right ) y$

=12 y
