Question 1Add & Subtract Fractions
Lily baked 3/8 of a batch of cookies and her brother baked 2/8 of a batch. How much of a batch did they bake together?
  1. A5/8
  2. B6/8
  3. C4/8
  4. D3/8
Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Add the fractions: 3/8 + 2/8 = (3+2)/8 = 5/8. So together they baked 5/8 of a batch. 💡 Strategy tip: When denominators are the same, just add the numerators.

Question 2Area, Perimeter & Line Plots
15 m 9 m A rectangular playground is 15 m long and 9 m wide. What is the perimeter of the playground?
  1. A48 m
  2. B24 m
  3. C30 m
  4. D36 m
Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Perimeter = 2 × (Length + Width) = 2 × (15 + 9) = 2 × 24 = 48 m. 💡 Strategy tip: Add the length and width, then double the sum.

Question 3Budgets, Expenses & Profit
Lena receives a weekly allowance of $10. She spends $3 on a snack and $2 on the bus. How much money does she have left?
  1. A$5
  2. B$7
  3. C$8
  4. D$4
Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

She started with $10, spent $3+$2 = $5, so $10-$5 = $5 left. 💡 Strategy tip: Subtract total expenses from the amount you start with.

Question 4Decimal Notation
What decimal notation represents the fraction \(\frac{3}{10}\)?
  1. A0.3
  2. B0.03
  3. C3.0
  4. D0.33
Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

\(\frac{3}{10}=0.3\) because the numerator 3 is in the tenths place. 💡 Strategy tip: Place the numerator in the tenths position after the decimal point.

Question 5Equivalent & Comparing Fractions
8 cm 4 cm Lily cut a pizza into 2 equal slices. Which of the following fractions shows the same amount of pizza as one slice?
  1. A2/4
  2. B3/5
  3. C4/6
  4. D5/8
Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

One slice is 1/2 of the pizza. The fraction 2/4 is equivalent because 2 ÷ 4 = 1 ÷ 2 = 0.5. 💡 Strategy tip: To find equivalent fractions, multiply or divide the numerator and denominator by the same number.

A factor divides the number without remainder. 24 ÷ 3 = 8, so 3 is a factor. The others leave remainders. 💡 Strategy tip: Test each option by dividing 24; a clean division means it’s a factor.
