Here’s a look at the new assessment…. Judy conducted an experiment. She put a total of 2⅛ cups of water into an empty container. Then, Judy recorded the amount of water that evaporated from the container each day for four days. The line plot below shows the amount of water that evaporated from the container on each of the four days. What mixed number represents the amount of water left in the container at the end of the fourth day? Cups Grade 4 Mathematics
Here’s a look at the new assessment…. A cylindrical tank has a height of 10 feet and a radius of 4 feet. Jane fills the tank with water at a rate of 8 cubic feet per minute. At this rate, how many minutes will it take Jane to completely fill the tank without overflowing it? Round your answer to the nearest minute. minutes Grade 8 Mathematics
