Problem 13: Which number is equivalent to 40%?
We know that “percent” means “per hundred”. So:
> 40% = 40 out of 100 = 40/100
Simplify 40/100 → divide numerator and denominator by 20 →
4/10
Also, 40% as a decimal is 0.40 (not 0.04 — that’s 4%).
Check the options:
- 4.0 → too big
- 1/4 → that’s 25%
-
4/10 → yes! That’s 40%
- 0.04 → that’s 4%
✔ Correct answer:
4/10

Problem 14: Farmer sold 93 lambs. 41 at $280 each, rest at $225 each. Total money?
First, find how many were sold at $225:
> 93 total - 41 =
52 lambs at $225 each
Now calculate:
Part 1: 41 × $280
→ 40 × 280 = 11,200
→ 1 × 280 = 280
→ Total = 11,200 + 280 =
$11,480
Part 2: 52 × $225
Break it down:
50 × 225 = 11,250
2 × 225 = 450
Total = 11,250 + 450 =
$11,700
Add both parts:
$11,480 + $11,700 =
$23,180
✔ Correct answer:
$23,180

Problem 15: Zafar walks 1 km in 18 minutes. How long for 10 km?
If 1 km takes 18 minutes, then 10 km takes:
> 10 × 18 =
180 minutes
Convert minutes to hours:
180 ÷ 60 =
3 hours
✔ Correct answer:
3 hours
