The correct answer is $582\ - \ 212\ - \ 195 =$
Eva gave $212$ of her $582$ cards to her friend. Therefore, she has $582\ – \ 212$ cards now.
Then she lost $195$ cards. Now, she has $(582 \ – \ 212 \ – \ 260 =) \ 175$ cards

2- Choice A is correct

The correct answer is $524$
To find the number, put $5$ for hundreds place, $2$ for tens place, and $4$ for ones place. Then, you will get: $500\ + \ 20 \ + \ 4 = 524$

3- Choice B is correct

The correct answer is $$141$
Alex saved $$64$ and $$45$. Therefore, she has $$109$ now.
$$250\ - \ $109 = $141$
She needs to save $141$.

4- Choice A is correct

The correct answer is Green
The chance of landing on Green is $3$ out of $6$.
The chance of landing on Red is $1$ out of $6$ .
The chance of landing on yellow is $2$ out of $6$.
The chance of landing on Green is more than the chance of landing on other colors.

5- Choice B is correct

The correct answer is $21,\ 17, \ 29, \ 65$
An easy way to tell whether a large number is odd or even is to look at its final digit.
If the number ends with an odd digit $(1, \ 3, \ 5, \ 7, $ or $9)$, then it's odd.
On the other hand, if the number ends with an even digit or $0\ (0,\ 2,\ 4,\ 6 $ or $8)$, then it is even.
$21, \ 17, \ 29$ and $65$ ends with odd digit, therefore, they are odd numbers.

6- Choice C is correct

$63\ – \ 33 = A$
$63\ – \ A = 33$
$A\ + \ 33 = 63$
But, this equation is not true:
$A\ – \ 33 = 63$

9- Choice B is correct

The correct answer is $7\ × \ 5\ × \ 2$
Classroom A contains $7$ rows of chairs with four chairs per row.

That means $\frac{4}{8}$ which is equal to: $\frac{2}{4}$
The second model is divided into $16$ equal parts. $8$ out of $16$ parts are shaded.
That means $\frac{8}{16}$ which is equal to: $\frac{2}{4}$

29- Choice D is correct

The correct answer is Each shows the same fraction because they are the same size.
The first model from left is divided into $8$ equal parts. $3$ out of $8$ parts are shaded. The fraction for this model is $\frac{3}{8} \space = \space \frac{3}{8}$.
The second model is divided into $8$ equal parts. $3$ out of $8$ parts are shaded. Therefore, the fraction of the shaded parts for this model is $\frac{3}{8}$.
