A wall is 7 feet 8 inches in height; four vertical pieces of wallpaper are needed to cover the wall.
Assuming there is no waste, what is the minimum length that a roll of wallpaper must be to cover the wall?

  1. 29 feet, 2 inches
  2. 31 feet, 2 inches
  3. 31 feet
  4. 30 feet, 8 inches

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

If there are four pieces of wallpaper, each 7 feet, 8 inches long, the total length of the wallpaper is 4 × 7 feet, 8 inches, or 28 feet, 32 inches. Since 12 inches = 1 foot, 32 inches = 2 feet, 8 inches. Thus, 28 feet, 32 inches = 30 feet, 8 inches.



We bought 5 pounds of cashew nuts worth $1.80 per pound, mixed with 4 pounds of peanuts worth $1.62 per pound.
What is the value per pound of the mixture?

  1. $1.72
  2. $1.71
  3. $3.42
  4. $l.82

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

5 pounds of cashew nuts at $1.80 per pound is worth 5 × $1.80 = $9.00 4 pounds of peanuts at $1.62 per pound is worth 4 × $1.62 = $6.48.
The total value of the 9-pound mixture is $9.00 + $6.48 = $15.48. The value of the mixture per pound is found by dividing the total value by the number of pounds.
$15.48 / 9 = $1.72



In a clothing factory, 5 workers finish production of 6 garments each per day, 3 others turn out 4 garments each per day, and 1 worker turns out 12 per day.
What is the average number of garments produced per worker per day?

  1. 22/9
  2. 6
  3. 4
  4. 71/3

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

5 workers making 6 garments each = 30 garments per day
3 workers making 4 garments each = 12 garments per day
1/9 workers making 12 garments = 12/54 garments per day
Add the number of workers and the number of garments per day.
9 workers make 54 garments per day.
To find the average number of garments per worker per day, divide the number of garments per day by the number of workers.
54/9 = 6 garments per worker per day.



A man makes a 255-mile trip by car. He drives the first 2 hours at 45 miles per hour.
At what speed must he then travel for the remainder of the trip in order to arrive at his destination 5 hours after he started?

  1. 31 miles per hour
  2. 50 miles per hour
  3. 51 miles per hour
  4. 55 miles per hour

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

The distance traveled by driving at 45 mph for 2 hours is 2 × 45, or 90 miles.
The remainder of the 255 mile trip is 255 - 90, or 165 miles.
To finish the trip in 5 hours, the man has 5 - 2, or 3, hours still to drive.
To find the rate of travel for a distance of 165 miles driven in 3 hours, divide the distance by the time.
165/3 = 55 miles per hour
