1. A consumer makes a $400 down payment on a television that costs $1,570. Which of the following is the number of months it will take to pay off the television with monthly payments of $100?
- A. 12
- B. 16
- C. 15
- D. 11
Correct answer: A
Rationale: After the $400 down payment, the remaining balance is $1,170. With monthly payments of $100, it will take 12 months to pay off the remaining balance. Therefore, the correct answer is 12 months. Choice B (16) is incorrect as it exceeds the required timeframe. Choice C (15) is incorrect as it is close but still one month over the correct timeframe. Choice D (11) is incorrect as it underestimates the time needed to pay off the remaining balance.
2. A soccer field is rectangular in shape and is 100 meters long and 75 meters wide. The hectare is a metric unit of area often used to measure larger areas. Given that 1 hectare = 10,000 square meters, which of the following represents the soccer field’s area in hectares?
- A. 0.75 hectares
- B. 7.5 hectares
- C. 7,500 hectares
- D. 75,000,000 hectares
Correct answer: A
Rationale: To find the area of the soccer field, multiply its length by its width: 100 meters × 75 meters = 7500 square meters. To convert this to hectares, divide by 10,000 (since 1 hectare = 10,000 square meters), resulting in 0.75 hectares. Therefore, the correct answer is A. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not correctly convert the area to hectares. B and C are off by a factor of 10, while D is off by a factor of 10,000.
3. What is an exponent?
- A. A number that tells how many times to multiply
- B. A number that is multiplied
- C. A number that divides evenly into another number
- D. A number that represents the square of a number
Correct answer: A
Rationale: An exponent is a number that indicates how many times a base number is multiplied by itself. The correct answer (A) accurately defines an exponent as a multiplier that shows how many times a number should be multiplied by itself. Choice B is incorrect as it describes a factor rather than an exponent. Choice C is incorrect as it defines a divisor, not an exponent. Choice D is incorrect as it specifically refers to the square of a number, which is not a general definition of an exponent.
4. Based on their prescribing habits, a set of doctors was divided into three groups: 1/4 of the doctors were placed in Group X because they always prescribed medication. 1/3 of the doctors were placed in Group Y because they never prescribed medication. 1/6 of the doctors were placed in Group Z because they sometimes prescribed medication. Order the groups from largest to smallest, according to the number of doctors in each group.
- A. Group X, Group Y, Group Z
- B. Group Z, Group Y, Group X
- C. Group Z, Group X, Group Y
- D. Group Y, Group X, Group Z
Correct answer: D
Rationale: Compare and order the groups based on the fractions provided.
5. Simplify the expression below. Which of the following is correct? 3.45 * 0.53
- A. 1.8285
- B. 18.285
- C. 0.18285
- D. 182.85
Correct answer: A
Rationale: To solve 3.45 * 0.53, multiply the numbers to get 1.8285. Therefore, the correct answer is A. Choice B is incorrect because it incorrectly moves the decimal point. Choice C is incorrect as it is a fraction of the correct answer. Choice D is incorrect as it results from an error in moving the decimal point.
