1- E
The capacity of a red box is $$20\%$$ bigger than the capacity of a blue box and it can hold $$60$$ books. Therefore, we want to find a number that $$20\%$$ bigger than that number is $$60$$. Let $$x$$ be that number. Then: $$1.20×x=60$$, Divide both sides of the equation by $$1.2$$. Then:
$$x=\frac{60}{1.20}=50$$

2- E
We have two equations and three unknown variables, therefore $$x$$ cannot be obtained.

3- E
$$x+2=2+2+2→x=4$$
$$y+7+3=6+5→y+10=11→y=1$$
Then, the perimeter is:
$$2+6+2+5+2+3+2+7+4+1=34$$

4- ٍE
Amount of available petrol in tank: $$60.4-4.86-23.9+11.22=42.86$$ liters

5- C
Let put some values for a and b. If $$a=8$$ and $$b=2 →a×b=16 →\frac{16}{4}=8→16$$ is divisible by $$4$$ then;
A.$$2a-5b=(2×8)-(5×2)=6$$ is not divisible by $$4$$
B.$$3a-b=(3×8)-2=24-2=22$$ is not divisible by $$4$$
If $$a=10$$ and $$b=4 →a×b=40 →\frac{40}{4}=10$$ is not divisible by $$4$$ then;
C.$$2a×3b=20×(3×4)=20×12=240$$ is divisible by $$4$$
D.$$\frac{a}{b}=\frac{10}{4}$$ is not divisible by $$4$$
E. $$\frac{a×b}{3}=\frac{10×4}{3}=13.33$$
For choice C, if you try any other numbers for a and b, you will get the same result.

6- D
Let’s review the choices provided:
A.$$x=\frac{1}{3}→ \frac{6}{8}+\frac{1}{3}=\frac{18+8}{24}=\frac{26}{24}≅1.083<2$$
B.$$x=\frac{3}{5}→ \frac{6}{8}+\frac{3}{5}=\frac{30+24}{40}=\frac{54}{40}≅1.35<2$$
C.$$x=\frac{6}{5}→ \frac{6}{8}+\frac{6}{5}=\frac{30+48}{40}=\frac{78}{40}≅1.95<2$$
D.$$x=\frac{4}{3}→ \frac{6}{8}+\frac{4}{3}=\frac{18+32}{24}=\frac{50}{24}≅2.08>2$$
E.$$x=\frac{2}{3}→ \frac{6}{8}+\frac{2}{3}=\frac{18+16}{24}=\frac{34}{24}≅1.41<2$$
Only choice D is correct.

B.$$y=25→ x+25+y+2x+y=35+25+25+2(35)+25=180$$
C.$$y=30→ x+25+y+2x+y=35+25+30+2(35)+30=190≠180$$
D.$$y=40→ x+25+y+2x+y=35+25+40+2(35)+40=210≠180$$
E.$$y=50→ x+25+y+2x+y=35+25+50+2(35)+50=230≠180$$

11- C

Perimeter of figure A is: $$2πr=2π \frac{20}{2}=20π=20×3=60$$
Area of figure B is: $$5×12=60$$, Average$$=\frac{60+60}{2}=\frac{120}{2}=60$$

12- C
Digit $$9$$ is in the hundredths place.

13- A
$$x-20=-20→x=-20+20→x=0$$, Then; $$x×20=0×20=0$$

14- C
$$0.04×13.00=\frac{4}{100}×\frac{13}{1}=\frac{52}{100}=0.52$$

15- E
His average speed was: $$\frac{3.5}{0.5}=7$$ miles per hour

16- B
The perimeter of the quadrilateral is: $$7+21+10+32=70$$

17- D
The amount of flour is: $$M-75$$

18- D
Number of packs needed equals to: $$\frac{18}{4}≅4.5$$, Then Mia must purchase $$5$$ packs.

19- C
The time it takes to drive from city A to city B is: $$\frac{3,600}{70}=51.42$$, It’s approximately $$51$$ hours.

20- B
Number of males in the classroom is: $$60-30=30$$
Then, the percentage of males in the classroom is: $$\frac{30}{60}×100=0.5×100=50\%$$
