Cognitive demand: medium. Typical question shape: 3-digit × 2-digit multiplication.
Imani is organizing a school fundraiser where she sells homemade cookies. Each cookie costs $2. If Imani sells 15 cookies, how much money will she collect from the sales?
- 30 ✓
- 25
- 20
- 15
Why: To find out how much money Imani collects, multiply the number of cookies sold by the cost of each cookie. So, 15 cookies * $2 = $30. Therefore, the correct answer is $30.
Jada is visiting the bluebonnet fields in Texas with her family. They take 125 photos of the beautiful flowers in each of the 4 fields they visit. How many photos do they take in total?
- 500 ✓
- 450
- 600
- 400
Why: To find the total number of photos taken by Jada and her family, multiply the number of photos taken in each field (125) by the number of fields visited (4). Using the standard algorithm, 125 × 4 = 500. Therefore, the correct answer is 500.
Imani is organizing a BBQ fundraiser in Texas. She plans to cook 125 pounds of brisket and needs to buy 36 bags of charcoal for the grill. If each bag of charcoal costs $8, how much will she spend in total on charcoal?
- 288 ✓
- 300
- 250
- 360
Why: To find the total cost of charcoal, multiply the number of bags by the cost per bag. Imani needs 36 bags of charcoal at $8 each, so 36 * 8 = 288. Therefore, she will spend a total of $288 on charcoal.
Mario is helping his grandfather on their ranch in Texas. They are repairing a fence that is 245 feet long. If they need to put in 36 fence posts evenly spaced along the length of the fence, how many feet apart will each fence post be from each other?
- 6
- 7 ✓
- 8
- 9
Why: To find out how many feet apart each fence post will be, we need to divide the total length of the fence (245 feet) by the number of spaces created by the posts. Since there are 36 posts, this creates 35 spaces. So, we calculate 245 ÷ 35, which equals 7. Therefore, each fence post will be 7 feet apart from each other.
Victoria is organizing a barbecue at her home in Texas. She plans to prepare 125 servings of brisket for her guests. If each serving costs $12, how much will it cost in total to prepare all the servings?
- 1500 ✓
- 1200
- 1400
- 1300
Why: To find the total cost of preparing 125 servings of brisket, multiply the number of servings (125) by the cost per serving ($12). The calculation is 125 × 12 = 1500. Therefore, the total cost will be $1500.
Maria wants to plant prickly pear cacti in her garden in Texas. She bought 124 cactus plants and each cactus costs $29. How much money did Maria spend on the cactus plants in total?
- 3596 ✓
- 248
- 3580
- 3500
Why: To find out how much money Maria spent on the cactus plants, we need to multiply the number of cactus plants (124) by the cost of each cactus ($29). The calculation is 124 * 29. First, we can break it down: 124 * 29 = 124 * (20 + 9) = 124 * 20 + 124 * 9 = 2480 + 1116 = 3596. Thus, the total amount Maria spent is $3596.
Fatima is planting flowers in her garden. She wants to plant 5 rows of flowers, with 8 flowers in each row. How many flowers will Fatima plant in total?
- 40 ✓
- 30
- 45
- 35
Why: To find the total number of flowers Fatima will plant, we multiply the number of rows by the number of flowers in each row: 5 rows * 8 flowers/row = 40 flowers. Therefore, the correct answer is 40.
Cristian is helping his family prepare for the Texas State Fair, and they need to buy 245 pounds of brisket for their BBQ stand. If each package of brisket weighs 12 pounds, how many packages do they need to buy?
- 20
- 21 ✓
- 22
- 23
Why: To find out how many packages of brisket Cristian needs to buy, we divide the total weight of brisket by the weight of each package. So, 245 ÷ 12 = 20.4167. Since Cristian can't buy a fraction of a package, he needs to round up to the next whole number, which is 21. Therefore, the correct answer is 21 packages.
