Solving Elementary Math Test


Introduction to solving elementary math test:

Mathematics is used for throughout the entire world used in many areas like, engineering, science, and medicine. In elementary school the students receive first level of education is called as primary education. Elementary mathematics includes topics from algebra, arithmetic, number system and geometry etc. In this article we shall discuss solving elementary math test example problem.

Having problem with Slope of Horizontal Line keep reading my upcoming posts, i will try to help you.

Solving elementary math test example problem


Here we are going to solving the elementary math test example problem with detailed solutions. It is very helpful for elementary math students.

Example:

Solving the equation: x-15 = 35

Solution:

Given x-15= 35

x = 35 + 15 (-15 in the LHS becomes +15 when it comes to the RHS)

Therefore y = 50

Example:

The cost of 20 pens is `$` 420. Find the cost of each pen.

Solution:

Consider the cost of one pen be x

Therefore the cost of 20 pen is 20 × x = 20x

But the cost of 20 pen            = `$` 420

The simple equation is 20x         = $420

To get the cost of one pen, solving the equation

20x = 420

x = 420 x 1/20

= 21

The cost of each pen is `$` 21

Example:

Solving the equation 6x – 4 = 26

Solution:

Given 6x – 4 =26

6x = 26 +4

6x = 30

x = 30 x `1/6`

Therefore x = 5

Example:

Solve the expression 12x + 5y - 4 + 6x + 6y + 8

Solution:

Find the like terms in the expression and then group and combine like terms:

• +12x and +6x are like terms, and combined to get +18x,

• +5y and +6y combine all like terms to get +11y, and

• -4 and +8 combine all like term and get +4.

So after simplify, the expression:

18x + 11y + 4

Example:

The sum of two numbers is 25. If one number is 14, find the other number.

Solution:

Consider the unknown number be x.

The sum of two numbers = 25

One number is 14.

Therefore the simple equation is            x = 25 - 14

x = 25 -14

x = 11

The other number is 11.
