Math Questions

Read each question carefully and write down your answer.

  1. Tom is building a tower with blocks. Each block is 3 units tall. Tom wants his tower to be 15 units tall. How many blocks does he need?

  2. A game item is at a spot. Its spot is (X=7, Y=2, Z=9). The 'X' number tells us how far left or right it is. If you move the item 4 units to the right (this changes X), what is its new 'X' number?

    SVG Diagram Needed: A simple 3D coordinate system with X, Y, and Z axes labeled. A point marked at (7, 2, 9) labeled 'Start'. An arrow showing movement 4 units along the positive X-axis to a new point labeled (11, 2, 9) 'End'.

  3. A flat game piece is 5 units long. If you make it 2.5 times longer, how long will the new piece be?

    SVG Diagram Needed: A line segment labeled '5 units'. Another line segment below it, 2.5 times longer, labeled '12.5 units'. Show how the 5 unit segment is multiplied by 2.5 to visually illustrate the scaling.

  4. A fast car in your game moves 6 units every second. How many units will it move in 4 seconds?

    SVG Diagram Needed: A number line showing a car moving 6 units at each second mark, up to 4 seconds. Total distance 24 units should be indicated.

    (Keywords: distance, speed, time, multiplication, number line)

  5. You are making a flat, rectangle platform. It is 8 units long and 4 units wide. What is its area? (Hint: Area = length $\times$ width)

    8 units4 units
  6. A special treasure chest in your game has 1 chance in 5 to give a super cool item. If 20 players open this chest, about how many super cool items do you expect will be given out?

    Static Image/Diagram Needed: 20 treasure chests, with 4 of them glowing or open to indicate they contain the special item. This visualizes the 1/5 probability (4 out of 20).
