## Best SSAT Middle Level Math Prep Resource for 2020

1- E
If $$30$$ percent of a number is $$60$$, then the number is: $$30\%$$ of $$x=60→0.3x=60→x=\frac{60}{0.3}=\frac{600}{3}=200, 20$$ percent of $$200$$ is:$$20\%$$ of $$200=\frac{20}{100}×200=40$$

2- D
$$2×0.4=0.8$$, all choices provided are equal to $$0.8$$ except option D. $$\frac{5}{15}×3=1$$

3- C
Sara has M books. Mary has $$6$$ more books than Sara. Then, Mary has $$M+6$$ books. If Mary gives Sara $$4$$ books, Mary will have: $$M+6-4=M+2$$

4- E
If $$\frac{x}{2}=30$$, then $$\frac{3x}{2}$$ is $$3$$ times $$\frac{x}{2}$$. The answer is $$90$$.

5- D
$$\frac{1}{6}$$ of $$40$$ is $$6.66$$. Let’s review the choices provided:
A. $$0.3×6=1.8$$
B. $$0.3×5=1.5$$
C $$0.2×30=6$$
D $$0.2×35=7$$
E $$0.2×39.5=7.9$$
Option D is the closest to $$6.66$$

6- B
The diagonal of the square is $$8$$. Let $$x$$ be the side.
Use Pythagorean Theorem: $$a^2+b^2=c^2$$
$$x^2 +x^2 = 8^2 ⇒ 2x^2 = 8^2 ⇒ 2x^2 = 64 ⇒x^2 = 32 ⇒x= \sqrt{32}$$
The area of the square is: $$\sqrt{32}×\sqrt{32}=32$$

7- B
The sum of supplement angles is $$180$$. Let $$x$$ be that angle. Therefore, $$x+5x=180$$
$$6x=180$$, divide both sides by $$6: x=30$$

8- B
Use the formula for Percent of Change: $$\frac{New \ Value-Old \ Value}{Old Value}×100\%$$
$$\frac{28-44}{44}×100\%≈-36\%$$ (negative sign here means that the new price is less than old price)

9- B
One liter $$=1,000$$ cm$$^3 → 6$$ liters $$=6,000$$ cm$$^3$$, $$6,000=25×5×h→h=\frac{6,000}{125}=48$$ cm

10- A
The perimeter of the trapezoid is $$64$$.
Therefore, the missing side (height) is $$= 64-18- 12-14 = 20$$
Area of the trapezoid: A $$= \frac{1}{2} h (b_{1}+b_{2 })= \frac{1}{2} (10) (12 + 14)=260$$
