| AT 9:00 AM the temperature is 55 degrees F. If the temperature increases 5 degrees F per hour, what will the temperature be at 1:00 PM? | 75 degree F (calculate the amount of time that elapses from 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM using a number line - since it is 4 hours and 5 degrees per hour that is 20 degrees added to 55 degrees) |
| Mrs. Cooper is going to a Hannah Montana concert. She leaves at 11:50 AM to go to the concert and returns 3 hours and 35 minutes later. What time is it when she returns? | 3:25 PM (since you are going from AM to PM, use a number line to find the elapsed time - start with moving forward 3 hours to 2:50, then move forward 10 minutes to 3:00 and finally 25 minutes to 3:25 PM) |
| Sam ran around the track three times which equals 627 yards. What is the distance, in feet, he ran around the track? | 1881 feet (Since you are going form big to small, so multiply by 3.) |
What is the volume of the rectangular prism?,  | 64 cubic units (count the total number of cubes) |
What is the difference of the area of the two polygons to the nearest square inch?,  | 7 square inches (Find the area of the rectangle (length x width) and find the area of the triangle (base x height divided by 2) then subtract) |
Write a number sentence that shows how to find the area of the polygon.,  | (4x2)+(3x2) |
What is the perimeter of the polygon?,  | 44 yards (Since each squre counts for 2 yards in this picture (notice that 4yd = 2 blocks), you need to complete the missing sides counting two for each block. Then add all of the sides to find perimeter.) |
| Ken recorded the number of minutes he exercised each day during the week. He worked out 45 min on Monday, 20 min on Tuesday, 25 min on Wednesday, 30 min on Thursday, and 50 min on Friday. How much time did he spend exercising during the week? | 2 hours and 50 min (add all of the minutes together and divide by 60 minutes to find out how many hours there are, and use the remainder as the number of minutes extra) |
| How do you convert from grams to kilograms? | Divide by 1,000 (small units to big units = divide and there are 1,000 grams in a kilogram) |
| Caroline bought 30 ounces of jelly beans. How many pounds is this? | 1 pound 14 ounces (Small units to large units = divide, so divide by 16 to find one whole pound and 14 ounces left over) |
| Write a fraction relating seconds to minutes. | One second is 1/60 of a minute (since it takes 60 seconds to make a minute, one second is 1/60 of a minute (a fraction is a part of a total)) |
What is the perimeter?,  | 24 meters (add all of the sides - make sure to include the missing side of 6!) |
What is the area?,  | 24 square meters (Break it into two rectangles first. Then find the area of each and add them together.) |
What is the area of the triangle?,  | 286 square cm (remember - the slant height is extra information when you are finding area. You need to multiply the base by the straight height then divide by two to find the area. |
An aquarium is shown below. What is the perimeter of the bottom of the aquarium?,  | 16 feet (Remember we are just finding the distance around the base, so "2 feet" is extra information. Just add 5+5+3+3 = 16. |
Mrs. Petet has a rectangular section of land that is fenced in behind her house. Her house is 50 feet long and fenced area is 10 feet wide. What is the area of the fenced in area?,  | 500 square feet (To find area of a rectangle, you multiply the length and the width or 50 x 10 = 500) |
| Gus' brother weighed 7 pounds 5 ounces when he was born. How many ounces is this? | 117 ounces ( you are going form pounds to ounces so multiply the pounds by 16 and add the extra ounces) |
The rectangle below has an area of 60 square feet. What is the perimeter?,  | 34 feet (First you have to find the missing side. What multiplies by 12 to = 60? 5 x 12 = 60, so the missing side is 5. Now find the perimeter by adding all 4 sides 5+5+12+12=34 feet) |
| Sarah bought 6 tickets and each one costs $4.88. How much will the total be? | $29.28 (Multiply the cost of one ticket by 6 or add 4.88 to itself 6 times) |
| What is the prime factorization of 45? | 3x3x5 (use a factor tree to break 45 down into prime numbers - remember 1 is not a prime number) |
| What is 436 divided by 4? | 109 (Place 436 in the divison house and 4 on the outside. Remember Divide Multiply Subtract Bring down) |
