6th Grade PSSA Math Practice Test Answers and Explanations

1- Choice B is correct
Plug in the value of \(x\) and \(y\) and use the order of operations rule. \(x=2\) and \(y=-3\)
\(5(4x-3y)-7y^2=5(4(2)-3(-3))-7(-3)^2=5(8+9)-7(9)=5(17)-63=85-63=22\)

2- Choice C is correct
For one hour he earns $18, then for t hours he earns $18t. If he wants to earn at least $78, therefore, the number of working hours multiplied by 18 must be equal to 78 or more than 78.
\(18t≥78\)

3- Choice B is correct
\((108-(3×9))÷9=9^3÷81=9\)

4- Choice B is correct
The ratio of boys to girls is 3 ∶ 5. Therefore, there are 3 boys out of 8 students. To find the answer, first, divide the total number of students by 8, then multiply the result by 3.
\(240÷8=30 ⇒ 30×3=90\)

5- Choice A is correct
Probability\(=\frac{number \space of \space desired \space outcomes}{number \space of \space total \space outcomes}=\frac{9}{9+15+14+16}=\frac{9}{54}\frac{1}{6}=0.16\)

7- Choice B is correct
Let \(y\) be the width of the rectangle. Then; \(14×y=84→y=\frac{84}{16}=6\)

8- Choice B is correct
\(4×\frac{5}{16}=\frac{20}{16}=1.25\)
A. \(1.25>2\)
B. \(1<1.25<2\) This is the answer!
C. \(\frac{3}{8}=1.25\)
D. \(1.25=2^2\)

12- Choice B is correct
The area of the trapezoid is: Area \(=\frac{base \space 1+base \space 2}{2}×height=\frac{12+10}{2}x=A→ 11x=A→x=\frac{A}{11}\)

13- Choice B is correct
\(\frac{72}{8}=9, \frac{648}{72}=9, \frac{5,832}{648}=9\), Therefore, the factor is 9.

14- Choice C is correct
Simplify each option provided.
A. \(13-(3×6)+(7×(-6))=13-18+(-42)=-5-42=-47\)
B. \((\frac{25}{400})+(\frac{7}{50})=\frac{25}{400}+\frac{56}{400}=\frac{81}{400}\)
C. \(((22×\frac{30}{6})-(7×\frac{144}{12}))×\frac{18}{2}=(110-84)×9=26×9=234\) (this is the answer)
D. \((\frac{6}{24}+\frac{12}{33})-50=(\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{3})-50=(\frac{3}{12}+\frac{4}{12})-50=\frac{7}{12}-50=\frac{-593}{15}\)

15- Choice D is correct
To find the discount, multiply the number (\(100\%\)- rate of discount)
Therefore; \(450(100\%-16\%)=450(1-0.16)=450-(450×0.16)\)

16- Choice A is correct
1,400 out of 11,900 equals to \(\frac{1,400}{11,900}=\frac{200}{1,700}=\frac{2}{17}\)

17- Choice C is correct
The opposite of Nicolas’s integer is \(25\). So, the integer is \(-25\). The absolute value of \(25\) is also \(25\).

18- Choice B is correct
Volume of a box = length × width × height = 7 × 4 × 12 = 336

19- Choice C is correct
1 yard = 3 feet, Therefore, \(33,759 ft×\frac{1 \space yd}{3 \space ft}=11,253\) yd

20- Choice B is correct
\(16\%\) of the volume of the solution is alcohol. Let \(x\) be the volume of the solution.
Then: \(16\%\) of \(x=38\) ml ⇒ \(0.16x=38 ⇒ x=38÷0.16=237.5\)
