A house contains one 12-foot × 14-foot bedroom, one 12-foot × 10-foot bedroom, and one 8-foot × 12-foot bedroom.
What’s the total amount of carpeting needed to carpet all three bedrooms?

  1. 384 square yards
  2. 128 square yards
  3. 216 square yards
  4. 88 square yards

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

Find the area of each bedroom and add them together: 12 × 14 = 168; 12 × 10 = 120; 8 × 12 = 96. 168 + 120 + 96 = 384 square feet. Then, because 3 feet make up a yard, divide the total area in square feet by 3 to determine the number of square yards needed: 384 ÷ 3 = 128 square yards.



Rafael can type 9 pages an hour.
How long will it take him to type 126 pages?

  1. 14 hours
  2. 9 hours
  3. 7 hours
  4. 16 hours

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

Divide the total number of pages to be typed by the number of pages Rafael can type per hour to find the number of hours it will take him to type the pages: 126 pages ÷ 9 pages per hour = 14 hours.



In a 60-minute gym class, 40 girls want to play volleyball, but only 10 can play at a time.
For each player to get the same amount of playing time, how many minutes should each person play?

  1. 11/2 minutes
  2. 6 minutes
  3. 30 minutes
  4. 15 minutes

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

Divide the group of 40 girls by the number of girls who can play at the same time: 40 ÷ 10 = 4. This means 4 groups of girls have to share the 60 minutes or 60 minutes ÷ 4 = 15 minutes. Thus, each girl plays for 15 minutes.



The video-rental store charges $2.00 for the first day a rented video is overdue and $1.25 for each day after that.
If a person paid $8.25 in late fees, how many days was the video overdue?

  1. 7 days
  2. 6 days
  3. 4 days
  4. 5 days

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

Subtract the first day’s late charge from the total: $8.25 – $2.00 = $6.25.
Then divide the remainder by $1.25 to determine the number of additional days the video was overdue: $6.25 ÷ $1.25 = 5.
Add those 5 days to the first day the video was late, to find that the video was 6 days overdue.
