<p>How do you do the marble question?</p>

<p>which one was that?</p>

<p>If you had experimental math, which – section 2 or 3 — do you think was it?</p>

<p>Section 2 — Was this the real one?
Section 3 — Was this the experimental?
Section 6 — Only section with gridins, therefore real
Section 9 — Only 20 min section, therefore real</p>

<p>I’m concerned because I’m pretty sure I got 'em all right in section 2 (skipped zero) but I skipped 3 in Section 3, so I’m hoping that was the experimental. Also skipped 1 in section 6 and 1 in section 9.</p>

<p>So…
Best-case: skipped 2
Worst-case: skipped 5</p>

<p>What is the best possible score I can get in each case? Guesstimates anyone?</p>

<p>The marble question was the last question on the first section I think.
I guessed E at the last minute because I didn’t have time.
Does anybody know what the actual answer was?</p>

<p>@calipe
do you remember the last question of sec 2 or 3. I didnt hav the math exp.</p>

<p>III was also possible since all you needed to do was multiply the 5 crackers by 16… Which would equal 80…</p>

<p>What was the French and English class problem? it was about 70 students blah blah. the answer choice was 35,45,20 etcc</p>

<p>Marble question:</p>

<p>Call x (total marbles) 100
Call y (number of red marbles) 20
call z (total number of marbles taken out) 10
Call r (number of red marbles taken out) 2
(20)(10) divided by (100)=2
so it was yz/x</p>

<p>Marble Question:
X marbles, Y red marbles, Z marbles removed, red marble/total marble ratio remains the same, what answer represents the amount of red marbles removed?
Plug in 100 marbles, 50 red marbles, 20 marbles removed, and 10 red marbles removed (50/100 = 40/80). You then had to plug in 100 for X, 50 for Y, and 20 for Z into all of the answer choices until you got one that gave you 10 (20*50/100).
The answer was zy/x.</p>

<p>Nutrition label question was I only.</p>

<p>French and Math problem was 35 students are taking math that aren’t also taking French.</p>

<p>Was that A or B? I limited it down to those two answer choices and I guessed the latter, I think.</p>

<p>hmmmm i dont remember it.</p>

<p>But for the Keypad Number Question, the answer was 5 right??</p>

<p>zy/x was which letter choice? E? So hopeful my guess was right… haha.</p>

<p>keypad was 5. I wasted so much time on that question >:(</p>

<p>@concretepencil94</p>

<p>Can’t remember which was the last in either of those two :frowning:
Anyone, it’d make a big difference for me?</p>

<p>@56789 no III wasnt right. It said for the box. You just did it for 1 serving.</p>

<p>yz/x was choice A.</p>

<p>was zy/x letter choice “a”?</p>

<p>gayyyy. So much for a lucky guess :’(</p>

<p>@kamzarro: ok good, the answer was “A”</p>

<p>n000 i chose letter B. :frowning: I did exactly what you guys did, actually. I plugged in numbers. It didn’t work, though… I chose 100 for X, 50 for B, and 15 for Z. None of the answers calculated right…</p>
