The total profit from the sale is the selling price minus the cost of purchase, which is $7300-$5500= $1800.If the total profit is $1800 and each shovel accounts for $50 profit, the amount of shovels is 1800/50=36.

If there are 3 times as many elephants as there are giraffes, giraffes can be defined as X, and elephants as 3X, and build the following equation: 3X + X = 88 4X = 88 X = 88/
The pattern is: 5, 15, 10, 13, 15, 11, ___ As you can see, the numbers that increase by 5 are bolded, and the numbers that decrease by 2 are underlined. We are missing the seventh number which is an odd term; therefore, it should be greater than the last odd term (the fifth number) by 5. The fifth number is 15. Thus, the answer is 15 + 5 = 20 A car travels at a speed of 85 miles per hour. How far will it travel in 15 minutes? A. 9 miles B. 11 miles C. 13.25 miles D. 21.25 miles E. 22.75 miles F. None of these 🗸🗸🗸: The correct answer is (D). An hour consists of 60 minutes. A quarter of an hour is 15 minutes as 15 * 4 = 60. Thus, divide the distance traveled per hour by 4, which is 85/4=21.25. A car dealership sells used cars for $7,000 and new cars for $16,000. If a total of 17 cars were sold for $191,000, how many of the cars sold were used? A. 2 B. 3
C. 5
D. 8
E. 10
F. None of these 🗸🗸🗸: The correct answer is (F) - None of the above. First of all, in order to simplify the calculations we can divide all the numbers by a common denominator: 1000, in that way we can get rid of all those annoying zeroes. Now we define the used cars as U (with a price of 7 each) and the new cars as N (with a price of 16 each) Now we can build two equations, the first representing the total price and the second the total amount of cars: a. 7U+16N= b. N+U= 17 So according to the second equation N = 17-U, and we can now substitute N in the first equation: 7U+16(17-U)=191 ; 7U+272-16U=191 ; 9U=81 ; U=9. 9 used cars were sold. Solving Tip: You could try solving this question by elimination. For starters, since 191 is an odd number and 16 is an even number, then the number of used cars must be odd (even+odd=odd) - which means we can eliminate answers A, D & E. Now that we are left only with B and C, let's try to calculate it for each of these options: . 37 + 16*(17-3) = 245, which means we can eliminate B as an answer.

🗸🗸🗸: The correct answer is (C). In order to find how much money he puts in his savings account, we need to find how much is 0.75 of $7,000: (75/100)×7000 = $5,250. Solving Tip: If multiplying 7,000 × 0.75 seems to be a bit too difficult, we can also use estimations and eliminate wrong answer choices. Let's round 0.75 down to 0.70, while keeping in mind that the correct answer must be slightly larger than the result. 7,000×0.70= 7,000×(70/100) =70×70 =4900. Answers A and B can definitely be eliminated as they are too low. Since we only rounded down by 0.05, know that the correct answer will only be slightly larger than
- We can therefore conclude with fair certainty that C is the correct answer. An oven can bake 8 pies of thin crust pizza per hour, or 2 pies of deep dish pizza pies per hour. How many hours will it take to prepare an order of 16 thin crust pies and 4 pies of deep dish?
A. 4 hours B. 2.5 hours C. 2 hours D. 1 hours 🗸🗸🗸: The correct answer is (A). Time = work/rate In order to calculate how long it would take to prepare 16 thin crusts, we need to divide 16 by the rate of thin crusts per hour. 16 thin crust pies/8 thin crust pies per hour = 2 hours Similarly, to calculate how long it would take to prepare 4 deep dish pies, we need to divide 4 by the rate of deep dish pies per hour. 4 deep dish pies/2 deep dish pies per hour = 2 hours The number of hours it will take to complete the order is 2 hours + 2 hours = 4 hours John's gross pay for the past month is $4687.24. If $421.78 was deducted from John's gross pay, how much take-home pay did John earn this past month? A. $ 421.
If we sum up the distance of both stages, we will find the distance between the cities. The first stage is calculated using the formula Time * Speed = Distance: 2 hours X 60 miles per hour=120 miles The second stage is calculated using the same formula: 1 hour X 65 miles per hour=65 miles Therefore, the total distance between the cities is 120 miles + 65 miles = 185 miles. In the stock market, four different stocks have an average price of $100 per stock. The price of a Drone stock is $70. What is the average price of the three other stocks (not including the Drone stock)? A. 107 B. 110 C. 112 D. 117 E. Cannot say 🗸🗸🗸: The correct answer is (B). In order to calculate an average, we have to know the sum of the individual values, and the number of individuals. We know that there are four different stocks, so the number of individuals is four (Number of individuals). Now, find
the sum of the prices of all the stocks (Sum of the individuals' value). We can calculate the sum of the group's value with the average of the values: Sum of all the values ------------------------ = Average Number of Values Let's insert the figures that we know into the formula. Sum of all values ---------------------- = 100 Dollars 4 Sum of all values = 400 Dollars The average of the 4 stock prices is $100, and therefore the sum of the stock prices is $400. If the value of the Drone stock is $70, we can conclude that the sum of the remaining three stock prices is $330. If the value of three of them is $330, the average price is $110. Quick tip: If an average is provided followed by the number of values, the sum of the values can be calculated. The sum is calculated as follows:
