Apply basic properties of numbers. In Example 4, you can use the definition of a prime number so that you do not include 1, but do include 2. 3. Eliminate as many answers as possible so that you can select from a smaller set of answer choices. In Example 3, you can eliminate some of the answers by noting that since each can of mixed nuts is at least 30% peanuts, the mixture of the two cans will be least 30% peanuts. Thus, before doing any computation, you could eliminate answers A, B, and C. Therefore, if you need to guess, you only have two answer choices left and have increased your odds of guessing correctly. 4. Substitute answers into the given question to see which one produces the ...
