Question

If a math test has 20 multiple choice problems, 10 fill in the blank and 5 word problems, what fraction of the problems on the test will be word problems?

Answer 1

1/7

what you're trying to find: # of word problems/ # of total problems

# of word problems = 5

# of total problems = 5 + 10 + 20 = 35

5/35 = 1/7
