Question 2 of 5
Select the correct statement(s) for the given mixed numbers.
A = 113, B = 146, and C = 223.
Statement 1: The sum of A and B is 3.
Statement 2: The sum of A and C is 4.
Incorrect
Correct
YIPPEE… YOU GOT IT RIGHT!
EXPLANATION
Let's check statement 1:
= 113 + 146 |
|
= 1×3+13 + 1×6+46 |
[Convert into mixed fractions] |
= 43 + 106 |
[Add] |
= 4×23×2 + 106 |
[Writing as an equivalent fractions] |
= 86 + 106 |
|
= 8+106 |
[Adding both the fractions] |
= 186 |
[Simplify] |
= 3 |
[Result] |
So, statement 1 is correct.
Now, let's check statement 2:
= 113 + 223 |
|
= 1×3+13 + 2×3+23 |
[Convert into improper fractions] |
= 43 + 83 |
[Add] |
= 4+83 |
[Add the fractions] |
= 123 |
|
= 4 |
[Result] |
So, statement 2 is correct.
So, both the statements are correct.
THERE’S ALWAYS A NEXT TIME!

Question 3 of 5
Harry joins two ropes of length 438 meters and 312 meters, and then cuts 214 meters of rope. What is the remaining length of the rope?
Incorrect
Correct
WELL DONE! YOU GOT IT RIGHT.
EXPLANATION
Let's find the total length of the rope by adding the lengths of both the ropes.
= 438 + 312 |
|
= 8×4+38 + 3×2+12 |
[Convert into improper fractions] |
= 32+38 + 6+12 |
|
= 358 + 72 |
|
= 358 + 7×42×4 |
[Write equivalent fractions] |
= 358 + 288 |
|
= 35+288 |
[Add] |
= 638 |
[Simplify] |
So, total length of rope is 638 meters.
It is mentioned that Harry cut 214 m of rope.
Then,
= 638 - 214 |
|
= 638 - 21×24×2 |
[Write equivalent fractions] |
= 638 - 428 |
[Subtract] |
= 63−428 |
|
= 218 |
[Result] |
Hence, the remaining length of the rope is 218 meters.
GIVE IT ANOTHER TRY.

[Simplify] |
So, total length of rope is 638 meters.
It is mentioned that Harry cut 214 m of rope.
Then,
= 638 - 214 |
|
= 638 - 21×24×2 |
[Write equivalent fractions] |
= 638 - 428 |
[Subtract] |
= 63−428 |
|
= 218 |
[Result] |
Hence, the remaining length of the rope is 218 meters.
First add the lengths and then subtract.

Question 4 of 5
What is the sum of 1315 and 11215?
Incorrect
Correct
FANTASTIC!
EXPLANATION
Let's add the whole part and the fractional part separately.
= 1315 + 11215 |
|
= (13 + 11) + 1×35×3 + 215 |
[Adding the whole number part and fraction part separately] |
= 24 + 3+215 |
[Add] |
= 24 + 515 |
[Simplify] |
= 24 13 |
[Merge both the parts to get the mixed fraction] |
Hence, 1315 + 11215 = 24 13
GO FURTHER, YOU CAN BE A CHAMP!
EXPLANATION
Let's add the whole part and the fractional part separately.
= 1315 + 11215 |
|
= (13 + 11) + 1×35×3 + 215 |
[Adding the whole number part and fraction part separately] |
= 24 + 3+215 |
[Add] |
= 24 + 515 |
[Simplify] |
= 24 13 |
[Merge both the parts to get the mixed fraction] |
Hence, 1315 + 11215 = 24 13
Add whole numbers and fractional parts separately.

Question 5 of 5
Jenny buys 145 lb of cheese to make sandwiches. She uses 1310 lb. How much cheese does Jenny have left?

Incorrect
Correct
A BUDDING MATHEMATICAL GENIUS AT WORK!
EXPLANATION
The total amount of cheese given = 145 lb
Cheese used for sandwiches = 1310 lb
Then, amount of cheese left = 145 - 1310
= 1×5+45 - 1×10+310 |
[Convert into improper fractions] |
= 95 - 1310 |
[Add] |
= 9×25×2 - 1310 |
[Write equivalent fractions] |
= 1810 - 1310 |
[Subtract] |
= 18−1310 |
|
= 510 (or) 12 |
[Simplify] |
Hence, Jenny has left with 510 lb or 12lb amount of cheese.
PLEASE TRY ONE MORE TIME.
