1. How many quarts are in 1 liter?

• A. 1 quart
• B. 1.06 quarts
• C. 2 quarts
• D. 0.5 quarts

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To convert liters to quarts, you can use the conversion factor 1 liter ≈ 1.06 quarts. Therefore, 1 liter is approximately 1.06 quarts. Choice A is incorrect because 1 quart is not equivalent to 1 liter. Choice C is incorrect as 2 quarts is more than 1 liter. Choice D is incorrect as 0.5 quarts is half of 1 liter.

2. Four friends are sharing a pizza. One friend eats half of the pizza. The other three friends equally divide the rest among themselves. What portion of the pizza does each of the other three friends receive?

• A. 1/5
• B. 1/3
• C. 1/4
• D. 1/6

Correct answer: A

Rationale: After one friend eats half of the pizza, the remaining half is divided equally among the three other friends. Each of the three friends receives 1/3 of the remaining half, not 1/6. Therefore, the correct answer is 1/3 of 1/2, which is 1/6 of the total pizza. The incorrect choices are: B. 1/3 - This is the correct portion of the remaining pizza each friend receives, not 1/3. C. 1/4 - This is not the accurate portion each friend receives after the first friend eats half of the pizza. D. 1/6 - This is the portion of the total pizza each friend receives, not the portion each friend receives after the initial half is consumed.

3. Simplify the following expression: 7 + 16 - (5 + 6 × 3) - 10 × 2

• A. -42
• B. -20
• C. 23
• D. 20

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Start by solving the multiplication and parentheses. The answer is -20.

4. What is the result of (6.4)(2.8) ÷ 0.4? Which of the following is correct?

• A. 16.62
• B. 17.92
• C. 41.55
• D. 44.8

Correct answer: D

Rationale: To simplify the expression, first multiply 6.4 by 2.8 to get 17.92. Then, divide the result by 0.4 to find the final answer. Therefore, (6.4)(2.8) ÷ 0.4 equals 44.8. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because they do not represent the correct result of the given expression.

5. How is the number -4 classified?

• A. Real, rational, integer, whole, natural
• B. Real, rational, integer, natural
• C. Real, rational, integer
• D. Real, irrational

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The number -4 is classified as a real number because it exists on the number line. It is also a rational number since it can be expressed as -4/1. Additionally, -4 is an integer because it is a whole number that can be positive, negative, or zero. However, -4 is not a whole number because whole numbers are non-negative integers starting from zero. Similarly, -4 is not a natural number since natural numbers are positive integers starting from one. Therefore, the correct classification for the number -4 is real, rational, and integer, making option C the correct answer.
