Solutions

UPQ68-1.  What is the missing number on the line?

108 : _____ = 9 : 8

(1) 109

(2) 96

(3) 86

(4) 72

108 = 9 × 12

9 : 8 = 9 × 12 : 8 × 12 = 108 : 96

108 : 96 = 9 : 8

UPQ68-2.   Hairu is 3/8 as old as Sarin. Find the ratio of Sarin’s age to their total age.

(1) 3 : 8

(2) 8 : 3

(3) 3 : 11

(4) 8 : 11

Their total age = 3 + 8 = 11 units

Sarin’s age  = 8 units

The ratio of Sarin’s age to their total age = 8 : 11

UPQ68-3.   The ratio of Hairu’s mass to Sarin’s mass is 7 : 10. If Sarin is 12 kg heavier than Hairu, what is their

total mass?

(1) 28 kg

(2) 40 kg

(3) 67 kg

(4) 68 kg

3 units = 12kg

1 unit = 4kg

Total mass = 17 × 4 = 68kg

UPQ68-4.   Fatimah bought a pizza. She ate 2/5 of it and shared the remaining portion of the pizza equally with

her 2 brothers. What fraction of the pizza did each of her brother eat?

Each of her brother ate 1/5 fraction of the pizza.
