Question 1.
Yousef is cutting pieces of construction paper so he can make cards for his family. Each piece of paper is 11\(\frac{1}{2}\) inches wide. If he cuts that width so he would have two equal-sized smaller pieces, how wide will each smaller piece be?
___________________
Answer:
\(\frac{23}{4}\) inches wide or 5\(\frac{3}{4}\) inches wide,

Explanation:
Given Yousef is cutting pieces of construction paper so he can make cards for his family. Each piece of paper is 11\(\frac{1}{2}\) inches wide. If he cuts that width, so he would have two equal-sized smaller pieces, therefore wide will each smaller piece be 11\(\frac{1}{2}\) ÷ 2 solving
\(\frac{23}{2}\) X \(\frac{1}{2}\) = \(\frac{23 X 1}{2 X 2}\) = \(\frac{23}{4}\) inches wide or \(\frac{5 X 4 + 3}{4}\) = 5 \(\frac{3}{4}\) inches wide.

Question 2.

Answer:
6 batches of biscuits can Marisol can make,

Explanation:
Given Marisol has 4\(\frac{1}{2}\) cups of flour.
A biscuit recipe she wants to try requires \(\frac{3}{4}\) cup of flour for a single batch of biscuits. Number of batches of biscuits can Marisol make are 4\(\frac{1}{2}\) ÷ \(\frac{3}{4}\) solving \(\frac{9}{2}\) X \(\frac{4}{3}\) = \(\frac{9 X 4}{2 X 3}\) = \(\frac{36}{6}\) = 6.

Question 10.
Critique Reasoning Jefferson shows the following work for a division problem. What mistake did Jefferson make? What is the correct answer to his original division problem?
5\(\frac{2}{5}\) ÷ 2\(\frac{1}{3}\) = \(\frac{27}{5}\) ÷ \(\frac{6}{3}\) = \(\frac{27}{5}\) × \(\frac{3}{6}\)
= \(\frac{81}{30}\) = 2\(\frac{21}{30}\) = 2\(\frac{7}{10}\)
Answer:
2\(\frac{1}{3}\) not equal to \(\frac{6}{3}\),
but \(\frac{7}{3}\) correct answer is 2\(\frac{11}{35}\),

Explanation:
Given Jefferson shows the following work for a division problem. Mistake did Jefferson made are
2\(\frac{1}{3}\) is not \(\frac{6}{3}\) but \(\frac{7}{3}\) solving for correct answe 5\(\frac{2}{5}\) ÷ 2\(\frac{1}{3}\) = \(\frac{27}{5}\) ÷ \(\frac{7}{3}\) = \(\frac{27}{5}\) X \(\frac{3}{7}\) = \(\frac{81}{35}\) = 2\(\frac{11}{35}\).

Question 11.
A cube has a surface area of 253\(\frac{1}{2}\) square inches. What is the area of one face of the cube in square inches? How do you know?
___________________
Answer:
42\(\frac{1}{4}\) square inches,

Explanation:
Given a cube has a surface area of 253\(\frac{1}{2}\) square inches.
as surface area is 6 a2, The area of one face of the cube in square inches is
253\(\frac{1}{2}\) ÷ 6 = \(\frac{253 X 2 + 1}{2}\) X \(\frac{1}{6}\) =
\(\frac{507}{12}\) as both goes in 3, 3 X 169 = 507 and 3 x 4 = 12 , so \(\frac{169}{4}\) as numerator is greater, we write in mixed fraction as 42\(\frac{1}{4}\) square inches.

Question 12.
Darlene has 6\(\frac{3}{4}\) gallons of gasoline. Every time she mows a lawn, she uses \(\frac{3}{8}\) gallon. How many times can she mow a lawn before she needs more gas?
Answer:
18 times Darlene can mow a lawn before she needs more gas,

Explanation:
Given Darlene has 6\(\frac{3}{4}\) gallons of gasoline.
Every time she mows a lawn, she uses \(\frac{3}{8}\) gallon.
Number of times can she mow a lawn before she needs more gas 6\(\frac{3}{4}\) ÷ \(\frac{3}{8}\) = \(\frac{6 X 4 + 3}{4}\) X \(\frac{8}{3}\)  =
\(\frac{27}{4}\) X \(\frac{8}{3}\) = \(\frac{27 X 8}{4 X 3}\) = \(\frac{9 X 2}{1 X 1}\) = 18. Therefore 18 times Darlene can mow a lawn before she needs more gas.

Explanation:
Given a rectangle has an area of 24\(\frac{1}{2}\) square feet.
If the length of the rectangle is 4\(\frac{3}{8}\) feet, so width is 24\(\frac{1}{2}\) ÷ \(\frac{35}{8}\) = \(\frac{24 X 2 + 1}{2}\) X \(\frac{8}{35}\)  =
\(\frac{49}{2}\) X \(\frac{8}{35}\) = \(\frac{49 X 8}{2 X 35}\) = \(\frac{7 X 4}{1 X 5}\) = \(\frac{28}{5}\) as numerator is greater we write in mixed fraction as 5\(\frac{3}{5}\) feet.

Given 10 ÷ 3\(\frac{3}{4}\) = 10 ÷ \(\frac{3 X 4 + 3}{4}\)  = 10 X \(\frac{4}{15}\) = \(\frac{10 X 4}{15}\) = \(\frac{8}{3}\) as numerator is greater we write in mixed fraction as 2\(\frac{2}{3}\).

Question 10.

Answer:
92,

Explanation:
Given 9\(\frac{1}{5}\) ÷ \(\frac{1}{10}\) solving \(\frac{9 X 5 + 1}{5}\) X \(\frac{10}{1}\)  = \(\frac{46 X 10}{5 X 1}\) = 92.

Question 11.
Which two expressions are equivalent to 4\(\frac{1}{2}\) ÷ 2\(\frac{1}{4}\)?
A. 4\(\frac{1}{2}\) × 2\(\frac{4}{1}\)
B. \(\frac{9}{2}\) ÷ \(\frac{9}{4}\)
C. \(\frac{8}{2}\) × \(\frac{8}{4}\)
D. \(\frac{9}{2}\) × \(\frac{4}{9}\)
E. \(\frac{8}{2}\) × \(\frac{4}{9}\)
Answer:
B. \(\frac{9}{2}\) ÷ \(\frac{9}{4}\) and
D. \(\frac{9}{2}\) × \(\frac{4}{9}\),

Explanation:
First evaluating 4\(\frac{1}{2}\) ÷ 2\(\frac{1}{4}\) = \(\frac{4 X 2 + 1}{2}\) ÷ \(\frac{2 X 4 + 1}{4}\)  = \(\frac{9}{2}\) X \(\frac{4}{9}\) = \(\frac{9 X 4}{2 X 9}\) = 2 now checking with bits
Bit A. 4\(\frac{1}{2}\) X 2\(\frac{4}{1}\) = \(\frac{4 x 2 + 1}{2}\) X \(\frac{2 X 1 + 4}{1}\) = \(\frac{9}{2}\) X \(\frac{4}{1}\) = \(\frac{9 x 4}{2 X 1}\) = 18 which will ot match with 2,
Bit B. \(\frac{9}{2}\) ÷ \(\frac{9}{4}\) = \(\frac{9}{2}\) X \(\frac{4}{9}\) = \(\frac{9 X 4}{2 X 9}\) = 2 matches,
Bit C. \(\frac{8}{2}\) X \(\frac{8}{4}\) = \(\frac{8 X 8}{2 X 4}\) = \(\frac{64}{8}\) = 8 which will not match with 2.
Bit D. \(\frac{9}{2}\) X \(\frac{4}{9}\) = \(\frac{9 X 4}{2 X 9}\) = \(\frac{4}{2}\) = 2 which will match with 2,
Bit E. \(\frac{8}{2}\) X \(\frac{4}{9}\) = \(\frac{8 X 4}{2 X 9}\) = \(\frac{16}{9}\) which will not match with 2,
The expressions which are equivalent to 4\(\frac{1}{2}\) ÷ 2\(\frac{1}{4}\) are
B. \(\frac{9}{2}\) ÷ \(\frac{9}{4}\) and D. \(\frac{9}{2}\) × \(\frac{4}{9}\).

Question 12.
An expression is shown.
3\(\frac{1}{8}\) ÷ 2\(\frac{3}{4}\)
What is the value of the expression?
___________________
Answer:
The value of the expression is 1\(\frac{3}{22}\),

Explanation:
Given expression 3\(\frac{1}{8}\) ÷ 2\(\frac{3}{4}\)
solving \(\frac{3 X 8 + 1}{8}\) ÷ \(\frac{2 X 4 + 3}{4}\) = \(\frac{25}{8}\) X \(\frac{4}{11}\) = \(\frac{25 X 4}{8 X 11}\) = \(\frac{25}{22}\)
as numerator is greater we write in mixed fraction as 1\(\frac{3}{22}\).

Question 13.
Tara made 2\(\frac{3}{4}\) cups of white rice for a dinner party. She has 3 friends coming to the party and will give each person, including herself, the same amount of rice. How many cups of rice will she serve each friend and herself?
A. \(\frac{7}{20}\) cup
B. \(\frac{11}{16}\) cup
C. 1\(\frac{7}{20}\) cups
D. 1\(\frac{11}{16}\) cups
Answer:
B. \(\frac{11}{16}\) cup,

Explanation:
Given Tara made 2\(\frac{3}{4}\) cups of white rice for a dinner party. She has 3 friends
coming to the party and will give each person, including herself, the same amount of rice.
Number of cups of rice will she serve each friend and herself are 2\(\frac{3}{4}\) ÷ 4 solving
\(\frac{2 X 4 + 3}{4}\)  X \(\frac{1}{4}\) = \(\frac{11}{4}\) X \(\frac{1}{4}\) = \(\frac{11 X 1}{4 X 4}\) = \(\frac{11}{16}\)  matches with B.

Question 14.
Foster needs to divide a plot of land covering 5\(\frac{3}{8}\) acres into plots covering \(\frac{3}{4}\) acre each. How many whole plots can he make?
___________________
Answer:
7 whole plots Foster can make,

Explanation:
Given Foster needs to divide a plot of land covering 5\(\frac{3}{8}\) acres into plots covering
\(\frac{3}{4}\) acre each. Number of whole plots can he make are 5\(\frac{3}{8}\) ÷ \(\frac{3}{4}\) solving \(\frac{5 X 8 + 3}{8}\) ÷ \(\frac{3}{4}\) =
\(\frac{43}{8}\) X \(\frac{4}{3}\) = \(\frac{43 X 4}{8 X 3}\) = \(\frac{43}{6}\) as numerator is greater we write in mixed fraction as 7\(\frac{1}{6}\) therefore Foster can make 7 whole plots.

Question 15.
An alligator is 11\(\frac{3}{4}\) feet long. Its tail is 5\(\frac{7}{8}\) feet long. What fraction of the alligator’s total length is its tail?
___________________
Answer:
The fraction of 2 is the alligator’s total length is its tail,

Explanation:
Given an alligator is 11\(\frac{3}{4}\) feet long.
Its tail is 5\(\frac{7}{8}\) feet long. The fraction of the alligator’s total length is its tail is
11\(\frac{3}{4}\) ÷ 5\(\frac{7}{8}\) solving \(\frac{11 X 4 + 3}{4}\) ÷ \(\frac{5 X 8 + 7}{8}\) = \(\frac{47}{4}\) X \(\frac{8}{47}\) =
\(\frac{47 X 8}{4 X 47}\) = 2, therefore the fraction of 2 is the alligator’s total length is its tail.

Question 16.
Write the numbers in order from least to greatest: -5, 0, -10, 1, -18.
Answer:
-18, -10, -5, 0 , 1,

Explanation:
The given numbers are -5, 0, -10, 1, -18  numbers in
order from least to greatest are as the least among all is
– 18 next -10 next -5 then 0 and 1 so the order is
-18, -10, -5, 0 , 1.

Question 17.
Add the fractions: \(\frac{1}{5}\) + \(\frac{1}{10}\).
Answer:
\(\frac{3}{10}\),

Explanation:
Given to add the fractions: \(\frac{1}{5}\) + \(\frac{1}{10}\),
when both denominators are same we take it as common and add numerator so we make common denominator by multiplying numerator and denominator of \(\frac{1}{5}\) by 2
so \(\frac{1 X 2}{5 X 2}\) = \(\frac{2}{10}\) now both have common denominator 10 so now we add numerators \(\frac{2}{10}\) + \(\frac{1}{10}\) = \(\frac{2 + 1}{10}\) = \(\frac{3}{10}\).
