A school canteen recorded the following sales in one morning: ₱125.75 from sandwiches, ₱89.50 from juice, and ₱64.25 from snacks. The manager then used ₱150.00 from the total sales to buy additional supplies. Which expression correctly represents the remaining amount of money?

• (125.75 + 89.50) – (64.25 + 150.00)

• 125.75 + (89.50 – 64.25) – 150.00

• (125.75 + 89.50 + 64.25) – 150.00

• 125.75 + 89.50 + (64.25 – 150.00)

Liza bought 3.5 kilograms of rice at ₱42.50 per kilogram and 2 bottles of cooking oil at ₱89.75 each. She paid ₱400.00. Which equation can be used to determine how much change she should receive?

• 400.00 – (3.5 × 42.50 + 2 × 89.75)

• (3.5 + 42.50) × (2 + 89.75) – 400.00

• 400.00 – (3.5 + 42.50 + 2 + 89.75)

• (400.00 – 3.5) × 42.50 + 2 × 89.75

A bookstore offers a 10% discount on a notebook priced at ₱85.00. After the discount, a student buys 7 notebooks and pays with ₱400.00. Which solution shows the correct analysis of how to compute the change?

• Subtract 10% of 85.00 from 85.00, multiply the result by 4, then subtract the total from 400.00.

• Multiply 85.00 by 4, then subtract 10 from 400.00.

• Add 10% of 85.00 to 85.00, multiply by 4, then subtract from 400.00.

• Multiply 10% by 4, subtract from 85.00, then subtract from 400.00.

Marco solved the problem: “A vendor earns ₱245.80 in the morning and ₱189.45 in the afternoon. He spends ₱120.25 for transportation and supplies. How much money does he have left?” Marco’s solution: 245.80 + 189.45 = 435.25; 435.25 – 120.25 = 315.00. Which statement correctly evaluates Marco’s solution?

• Marco’s solution is incorrect because he should multiply instead of add.

• Marco’s solution is correct because he added the total earnings and subtracted the total expenses accurately.

• Marco’s solution is incorrect because subtraction should come before addition.

• Marco’s solution is incorrect because decimals cannot be added directly.

You are planning a class fund-raising activity. You expect to sell 25 tickets at ₱35.50 each. The printing cost of the tickets is ₱215.75, and the decoration cost is ₱180.25. If your goal is to determine the net profit, which plan correctly shows how you should compute it?

• Multiply 25 by 35.50, then add 215.75 and 180.25 to the result.

• Add 215.75 and 180.25, then subtract 25 from 35.50.

• Multiply 25 by 35.50 to find total sales, add the two costs together, then subtract total cost from total sales.

• Multiply 35.50 by 215.75, then subtract 180.25.

What does the letter “D” stand for in the GMDAS rule used in solving expressions with fractions and decimals?

• Difference

• Division

• Decimal

• Distribution

In the expression 18 + 2 × 4 ÷ 3, which operation should be performed first according to the GMDAS rule?

• 18 ÷ 2

• 4 ÷ 3

• 2 × 4

• 18 ÷ 3

A student solved the expression 12 – 4 × 2 + 6 and wrote the following steps: Step 1: 12 – 8 + 6; Step 2: 4 + 6; Step 3: 10. Which statement best describes the student’s solution?

• The solution is incorrect because subtraction should be done before multiplication.

• The solution is correct because multiplication was performed before addition and subtraction.

• The solution is incorrect because addition must come before subtraction.

• The solution is incorrect because 4 × 2 equals 6.

Which statement correctly compares a square and a cube?

• Both are solid figures.

• A square is a plane figure, while a cube is a solid figure.

• A cube is a plane figure.

• Both have volume.

Carla says that a rectangle and a rectangular prism are the same because they both have four sides. Which evaluation is correct?

• Carla is correct.

• Carla is correct because both are solid figures.

• Carla is incorrect because a rectangle is a plane figure while a rectangular prism is a solid figure.

• Carla is incorrect because rectangles have volume.
