ANSWER KEY:

1) 0.2
 

Method 1:

!
To convert ! into a decimal, first, multiply the fraction by a number in
which the denominator will result in either 10, 100, or 1000. In this case,
10. Given such, five is then multiplied by 2 to get the product of 10.

!
!
x 2 = 2/10

With this, the given fraction can easily be converted into a decimal.

0.0 -> (2nd 0 is the tenth’s place)

Since the denominator is ten, substitute the numerator ( 2 ) in the tenths


place. Hence, the answer:

0.2

Method 2:

Divide the numerator (1) by the denominator (5) :

2) 0.375

Method 1 (shortcut):

Being familiarized with the most basic conversions will aid in converting
fractions quickly. Such examples are:

½ = 0.5
¼ = 0.25
 

⅛ = 0.125

! !
Given the value !, it can be implied that ! is thrice the value of ⅛.
Therefore:

(⅛ ) x 3 = 0.125 x 3
⅜ = 0.375

Method 2:

!
To convert ! into a decimal, first, multiply the fraction by a number in
which the denominator will result in either 10, 100, or 1000. In this case,
1000. Given such, eight is then multiplied by 125 to get the product of
1000.

!
!
x 125 = 375/1000

With this, the given fraction can easily be converted into a decimal.

0.000 -> (3rd 0 is the thousands place)

Since the denominator is one thousand, substitute the numerator ( 375)


in the thousands place. Hence, the answer:

0.375

Method 3
Divide the numerator (3) by the denominator (8)

Equate 0.342342342 … as X. This will be equation A.


X= 0.342342342 …
 

Copy the equation and multiply it by 10^n in which n represents the


number of repeating digits. This will be equation B. In this case, there
are three repeating values (342)
x= 0.342342342
(10^n)x= (10^n) 0.342342342
(10^3)x= (10^3) 0.342342342
1000x= (1000) 0.342342342
1000x= 342.342342

Subtract equation B by equation A


1000x= 342.342342
- x= 0.342342342
999x= 342

Isolate x by dividing 999 on both sides


999x= 342
x= 38/111

To convert a decimal with a whole number, focus first on the decimal


value.
8.42424242 …
0.42424242

Equate 0.42424242 as X. This will be equation A.


 

x= 0.42424242

Copy the equation and multiply it by 10^n in which n represents the


number of repeating digits. This will be equation B. In this case, there
are three repeating values (342)
x= 0.42424242
(10^n)x= (10^n) 0.42424242
(10^2)x= (10^2) 0.42424242
100x= (100) 0.42424242

Subtract equation B by equation A


100x= 42.424242
- x= 0.42424242
99x= 42

Isolate x by dividing 99 on both sides


99x= 42
x= 14/33

Since 4 !   +  3 ! are similar fractions (fractions with equivalent

denominator), the numerator and coefficient can be added directly.


 

Whole number: 4+3= 7


Numerator: 3+4=7
Denominator: 5
*The denominator stays as is*

= 7 7/5.

However, the aforementioned answer is written as an improper


fraction. To convert into a proper fraction, you need to simplify the
fraction:
7 7/5

To simplify, simply divide the numerator (7) by the denominator (5).

Add the whole number of the quotient (1) to the whole number of the
mixed fraction (7)
7+1= 8

The remainder will serve as the new numerator, where else, the
denominator will remain the same.

 

Combine the whole number to the new fraction. Hence, the answer
=8⅖

6) 4 !
! !
Since 8 !   −  4 ! are similar fractions, the numerator and coefficient can

be subtracted directly. The denominator stays as is.

In a group of 50, 25% know how to draw, and 20% of those who know how to
draw is not well-versed in the art of singing. How many of the group’s
members know how to draw and sing?

Drawers: 25% of 50
Drawers who can’t sing: 20% of 25%

25%-20%= 5%

5% of 50= 10

11. D or d
• The answer is letter D or the Transitive Property of Equality
because if we have two things that are equal to each other and
the second thing is equal to a third thing, then the first thing is
also equal to the third thing

12. C or c
 

• The answer is letter c because 2, 7, 5, 13 and 11 are all prime


numbers

13. C or c
• The answer is letter c or the 6,005,813 is multiple of 11 because 6-
0+0-5+8-1+3=11. And 11 is divisible by 11.

14. A or a
• The answer is letter A because 54! is equal to 2,916 and 51! is
equal to 2,601 so, 2,916+2,601 is equal to 5,517

15. B or b
• A rational number can be expressed in either a terminating
decimal, repeating decimal, or non-terminating repeating
decimal. Since, 7.98257645 is non-terminating AND non-
repeating, it is an IRRATIONAL number.

16. B of b
• The answer is B because the elements that intersect in setA and
setB are 1,4 and 6.

17. C or c
• The answer is C because the union of set A and set C are the
elements 1,2,4,6,8,22,30 and 35

18. C or c
• The answer is C because the elements that intersect in set B and
set C is 4

19. A or a
• The answer is letter A because:
     𝑥 = 𝑦 − 10 + 𝑧 − 10 + 10
   𝑥 = 115 − 10 + 130 − 10 + 10
𝑥 = 105 + 120 + 10
𝑥 = 235

20. A or a
• The answer is A or 9.84 because the coroner declared that the
 

length of the murder weapon must be equal to the depth of the


wound. Since 0.25 meters converted to inches will be 9.84 inches,
the first knife is the answer
