Summer Review Sheets — Answer Key
Part A: Multiple Choice
Circle the best answer for each question.
1. A family spends $28 per day on food for a 7-day beach trip and $95 on gas. What is the total trip cost?
A) $281
B) $291
C) $301
D) $311
Daily food cost over 7 days is 7 x $28 = $196, and adding $95 for gas gives $196 + $95 = $291 for the whole trip.
2. A recipe uses 26 cup of sugar. What is 26 in simplest form?
A) 12
B) 13
C) 14
D) 23
Dividing both the numerator and denominator of 26 by 2 gives 13, which is the simplest form because 1 and 3 share no other common factor.

A) 74 sq m

Area equals length times width, so 25 x 12 = 300 square meters for the pool.

Part B: Fill in the Blank
Write the correct answer on each line.
1. A surf shop sells 13 wetsuits at $42 each. Total revenue is $546 .
Selling 13 wetsuits at $42 each gives 13 x 42 = 546, so revenue is $546.
2. A park ranger divides 378 trail maps equally among 9 stations. Each station gets 42 maps.
Dividing 378 maps among 9 stations equally means 378 / 9 = 42 maps per station.
3. A cooler holds 2.75 liters of water. After pouring out 1.5 liters, it has 1.25 liters left.
Subtracting the amount poured out from the starting amount gives 2.75 - 1.50 = 1.25 liters left in the cooler.
4. A beach towel is shaped like a rectangle 6 feet long and 3 feet wide. Its perimeter is 18 feet.
Perimeter of a rectangle adds all four sides: 6 + 3 + 6 + 3 = 18 feet.
5. When a story is told by a character using the word "I," it is written in first person.
