At the beginning of the year, Mrs. Wilkinson's class had 18 packages of colored paper. So far, the class has used 513 pieces of colored paper. If each package of colored paper contained 75 pieces, how many pieces of colored paper does the class have left?

 A. 420
 B. 606
 C. 837
 D. 1,863


C. 

837

18 packages × 75 pieces of paper per package = 1,350 pieces of paper

Then, subtract the number of pieces of paper the class has used.

1,350 pieces of paper - 513 pieces of paper = 837 pieces of paper

What value of z makes this equation true?

 A. 67
 B. 51
 C. 52
 D. 66


B. 51

Compare the numbers on each side of the equation to find the value of z.

First, find the difference between the second number on each side.

Since 39 is 8 greater than 31, z must be 8 less than the first number on the right side, 59.

So, the value of z that makes the equation true is 51.

Freddy bought 3 bags of pebbles to put in his fish tank. Each bag contains 211 pebbles. After he put the right amount of pebbles in his fish tank, he had 100 pebbles left over. How many pebbles did he put in his fish tank?

 A. 533
 B. 733
 C. 108
 D. 314


A. 

533

3 bags × 211 pebbles per bag = 633 pebbles

Then, subtract the amount of pebbles he had left over.

633 pebbles - 100 pebbles = 533 pebbles

What value of j makes this equation true?

 A. 7

 B. 15
 C. 6
 D. 14


D. 14

Compare the numbers on each side of the equation to find the value of j.

First, find the difference between the first number on each side.

Since 68 is 4 less than 72, j must be 4 greater than the second number on the left side, 10.

So, the value of j that makes the equation true is 14.

Lance is 3 inches shorter than Justin. Bill is 7 inches taller than Lance. If Justin is 69 inches tall, how tall is Bill?

 A. 79 in

 B. 73 in
 C. 83 in
 D. 76 in


B. 73 in

To calculate Lance's height, subtract 3 inches from Justin's height of 69 inches.
69 - 3 = 66

To calculate Bill's height add 7 inches to Lance's height.

66 + 7 = 73
So, Bill is 73 in tall.

What value of n makes this inequality true?

 A. 13
 B. 9
 C. 8
 D. 17



D. 17

Compare the numbers on each side of the inequality to find the value of n.

First, find the difference between the second number on each side.

Since 6 is 3 more than 3, n must be less than 3 more than the first number on the right side, 16.

To make the inequality true, the value of n must be more than 13.

So, the value of n that makes the inequality true is 17.

o calculate how many pairs of shoes Mrs. Jones has, take the shoes she started with, add the new shoes she bought, and then subtract the shoes she threw away.

26 + 13 - 15 = 24

So, Mrs. Jones has 24 pairs of shoes.
