14,000 fans attended the football match yesterday. 6/7 of them wore scarves. How many were without scarves?
2,000
4,000
8,000
10,000
6/7 of 14,000 = 12,000, therefore 2,000 were without scarves
2 .
A piece of copper wire is 72⁄3m long. What is the total length of three of these wires?
223⁄8
23
241⁄3
26
3 x 7 = 21 and 3 x 2/3 = 6/3 or 2 then add these two numbers together
3 .
What is 21⁄4 x 21⁄5?
23⁄10
35⁄10
419⁄20
51⁄2
21?4 becomes 9?4 which we multiply by 21?5 or 11?5 to get 99?20 or 419?20
4 .
What is 3⁄10 ÷ 6⁄25?
1
11⁄4
11⁄2
13⁄4
To divide by a fraction, invert and multiply: 3/10 ÷ 6/25 = 3/10 x 25/6. Use this method whenever you have to divide by fractions
5 .
What is 1/9 x 3/5?
1/12
1/14
1/15
1/18
1 x 3 = 3 and 9 x 5 = 45 so we get the answer 3/45 or 1/15
6 .
In a jar of 120 sweets, one in every six sweets is orange flavoured. If half the orange sweets are eaten, what fraction of the sweets is left?
5⁄6
3⁄4
11⁄12
9⁄10
1?6 of 120 is 20, so 10 are eaten, leaving 110. 110?120 = 11?12
7 .
What is 23⁄4 ÷ 41⁄8?
1/3
1/2
2/3
3/4
Remember to invert the second fraction and change the divide sign to multiply
8 .

1/7
2/7
3/7
5/7
To divide by a fraction, invert and multiply

10 .
What is 3/8 of £48.00?
£6.00
£10.00
£14.00
£18.00
Rewrite the question as 3/8 x 48. 48 / 8 = 6, 6 x 3 = 18, therefore the answer is £18.00
