Stan bought a monster truck for $2,000 down and payments of $450 a month for five years.
What's the total cost of the monster truck?

  1. $4,250
  2. $29,000
  3. $27,000
  4. $34,400

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

Five years contain 60 months, so multiply $450 (monthly payment) × 60 = $27,000 (total payments). Then add $27,000 (total payments) + $2,000 (down payment) = $29,000 (total cost).

  2. $110.45
  3. $114.86

Add the three monthly amounts to determine the total amount Darla spent on groceries: $120.37 + $108.45 + $114.86 = $343.68.
Divide the total by 3 to determine the average monthly cost: $114.56.

Michael needs 55 gallons of paint to paint an apartment building. He would like to purchase the paint for the least amount of money possible.
Which of the following should he buy?

  1. two 25-gallon buckets at $550 each
  2. eleven 5-gallon buckets at $108 each
  3. six 10-gallon buckets at $215 each
  4. fifty-five 1-gallon buckets at $23 each

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

Determine the cost of each option.
Choice (two 25-gallon buckets at $550 each): doesn't provide enough paint (2 × 25 gallons = 50 gallons).
Choice (eleven 5-gallon buckets at $108 each): 11 × $108 = $1,188.
Choice (six 10-gallon buckets at $215 each): 6 × $215 = $1,290.
Choice (fifty-five 1-gallon buckets at $23 each): 55 × $23 = $1,265.
The lowest price is $1,188.



As a member of FEMA, you're required to set up a contingency plan to supply meals to residents of a town devastated by a tornado. A breakfast ration weighs 12 ounces and the lunch and dinner rations weigh 18 ounces each.
Assuming a food truck can carry 3 tons and that each resident will receive 3 meals per day, how many residents can you feed from one truck during a 10-day period?

  1. 150 residents
  2. 200 residents
  3. 250 residents
  4. 300 residents

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

One ton = 2,000 pounds, so one truck can carry 6,000 pounds.
There are 16 ounces in a pound, so one truck can carry 96,000 ounces.
The total daily ration for each resident is 12 ounces + 18 ounces + 18 ounces, or 48 ounces.
The number of daily rations supplied can be expressed as 96,000 ÷ 48 = 2,000.
Dividing 2,000 by 10 days results in 200 residents who can be fed by one truck during this 10-day period.
