A large pizza has a diameter of 12 inches. Which of the following is the area of the pizza in terms of pi ()?
A. 24 πi n2
B. 48 π in2
C. 18π in2
D. 36 π in2
Before finding the area of the pizza, we need to find the radius of the pizza.
Find radius of the pizza in terms of diameter
Next, find area of the pizza using the radius of 6 inches
Substituting r=6 in the equation of the area of a circle
Thus, the pizza has an area of 36 π in2.
Therefore, the Correct Answer is D.

Q #1: A student performs the following estimations. 35+192 230 258+350 610 947+1032 1980 Based on these estimations, which of the following is the student’s estimate of 694+7618?
A. 8320
B. 8500
C. 8300
D. 8310
Answer Explanation
Here we need to find the actual values of the additions and see the trend the student will use to estimate the given problem. The exact sum is as follows
35+192
227258+350=608
947+1032=1979
From the above calculations, it is evident that the student rounds up or down the ones place values. So, in the problem we need to approximate 694+7618.
694+7618=8312
We can approximate 8312 based on the provided choices is 8310.

Q #3: The data below represents students’ test scores. Which of the following is the median of the set data? 24, 35, 18, 19, 22, 35, 16, 12, 26, 12, 23
A. 18
B. 22
C. 23
D. 19
Answer Explanation
The median of a data set is found in two ways:
For an odd data set, the median fall in the (N+1)/2 th position.
For an even data set, the median is the average of the element in the (N/2)th and (N+1)/2 th positions.
To find the median of the given data set, we need to arrange the elements from the smallest to the largest as follows:
12, 12, 16, 18, 19, 22, 23, 24, 26, 35, 35
There are 11 elements in the data set. 11 is an odd number and the median fall in the (N+1)/2 th position.
Median =(11+1)/2=12/2=6 th position.
From the organized data, the element in the 6th position is 22, which is the required median for the data set.
