ASVAB - Arithmetic Reasoning/Mathematics
Knowledge Exam Questions and Answers


John bought a camera on sale that normally costs $160. If the price was reduced 20% during the sale,

what was the sale price of the camera?




(a) $120


(b) $124


(c) $128


(d) $140 - Ans:✔✔-(c) $128




This question asks you to determine the sale price of a camera that normally sells at $160 and is

discounted 20%. To solve, determine what 20% of $160 equals. Rewrite 20% as a decimal.




20% = 0.20. So 20% of $160 = 0.20 x $160 = $32.

In this question, the ratio is implied: for every 3/4 inch of map there is 1 real mile, so the ratio of inches

to the miles they represent is always 3/4 to 1. Therefore, you can set up the proportion:




number of inches/ number of miles = 3/ = 3/4




Now 1 3/4 inches = 7/4 inches.




Set up a proportion:




7/4 inches




7/4 inches / number of miles = 3/4




Cross-multiply:
