Multiply.
-$\left(\frac{1}{6}\right)^{2}$
A) 36
B) $\frac{1}{12}$
C) $\frac{1}{36}$
D) $\frac{1}{6}$

Accepted Answer

When you square $\frac{1}{6}$, you multiply it by itself: $\left(\frac{1}{6}\right)^2 = \frac{1}{6} \times \frac{1}{6} = \frac{1}{36}$.

Question 4

Calculate. Write the answer as a mixed number as needed.
-$16 \frac{1}{6}-2 \cdot 1 \frac{1}{5}$
A) $14 \frac{1}{10}$
B) $13 \frac{23}{30}$
C) $14 \frac{1}{6}$
D) $15 \frac{23}{30}$

Accepted Answer

First, convert the mixed numbers to improper fractions: $16 \frac{1}{6} = \frac{97}{6}$ and $1 \frac{1}{5} = \frac{6}{5}$. Multiply $2 \cdot \frac{6}{5} = \frac{12}{5}$. Convert $\frac{12}{5}$ to have a common denominator with $\frac{97}{6}$, which is 30: $\frac{12}{5} = \frac{72}{30}$ and $\frac{97}{6} = \frac{485}{30}$. Subtract: $\frac{485}{30} - \frac{72}{30} = \frac{413}{30}$. Convert $\frac{413}{30}$ to a mixed number: $13 \frac{23}{30}$.

Question 7

Solve. Write the answer as a mixed number as needed.
-A recipe calls for $1 \frac{1}{3}$ cups of water. How much water would be needed for half the recipe?
A) $\frac{2}{3}$ cup
B) $\frac{5}{6}$ cups
C) $1 \frac{1}{6}$ cup
D) $\frac{1}{2} \operatorname{cup}$

Accepted Answer

To find half of $1 \frac{1}{3}$ cups, convert the mixed number to an improper fraction: $1 \frac{1}{3} = \frac{4}{3}$. Halving $\frac{4}{3}$ gives $\frac{4}{3} \times \frac{1}{2} = \frac{4}{6} = \frac{2}{3}$ cup.

Question 8

Solve. Write the answer as a mixed number as needed.
-Tia pays her babysitter $\$ 8$ per hour. The babysitter worked for $2 \frac{1}{2}$ hours on Friday and $2 \frac{3}{4}$ hours on Saturday. How much will Tia pay her babysitter for the two days of babysitting?
A) $\$ 64.00$
B) $\$ 21.00$
C) $\$ 32.00$
D) $\$ 42.00$

Accepted Answer

First, add the hours worked: $2 \frac{1}{2} + 2 \frac{3}{4} = 5 \frac{1}{4}$ hours. Then, multiply by the hourly rate: $5 \frac{1}{4} \times \$8 = \$42.00$.
