Answer key and explanations

  1. D. \(45\)

    \(30\%\) of \(150\) is \(0.30\times150=45\).

  2. C. \(15\)

    \(75\%\) of \(20\) is \(0.75 \times 20 = 15\) games.

  3. D. \(25\%\)

    \(\frac{20}{80} = \frac{1}{4} = 0.25 = 25\%\).

  4. D. \($32\)

    The discount is \(40\%\) of \($80\): \(0.40 \times 80 = 32\) dollars.

  5. C. \(80\)

    If \(12 = 0.15 \times n\), then \(n = \frac{12}{0.15} = 80\).

  6. C. \(60\%\)

    The shaded region is \(\frac{60}{100} = 60\%\) of the grid.

  7. C. \(34\)

    \(85\%\) of \(40\) is \(0.85 \times 40 = 34\) questions.

  8. D. \(10\)

    \(5\%\) of \(200\) is \(0.05 \times 200 = 10\).
