1. What is the result of dividing 3.44 by 0.6 rounded off to the nearest whole number?

• A. 0
• B. 6
• C. 11
• D. 2

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To find the result of dividing 3.44 by 0.6, you perform the division operation: 3.44 ÷ 0.6 = 5.73. When rounded off to the nearest whole number, 5.73 becomes 6. Therefore, the correct answer is 6. Choice A is incorrect as the result is not 0. Choice C is incorrect as it is not the closest whole number to 5.73. Choice D is incorrect as it does not reflect the accurate division result.

2. What number is represented by the Roman Numerals XLIV?

• A. 34
• B. 54
• C. 44
• D. 24

Correct answer: C

Rationale: In Roman numerals, XL represents 40, and IV represents 4. When XL (40) is combined with IV (4), it forms XLIV, which corresponds to the number 44. Therefore, the correct answer is 44. Choice A (34) is incorrect as it does not consider the value of XL and IV. Choice B (54) is incorrect as it miscalculates the value of XL. Choice D (24) is incorrect as it does not account for the value of XL.

3. Rectangle: A picture frame measures 15cm by 20cm. What is its perimeter?

• A. 30cm
• B. 55cm
• C. 65cm
• D. 75cm

Correct answer: C

Rationale: To find the perimeter of a rectangle, you add the lengths of all sides. The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is 2 * (length + width). In this case, the length is 15cm and the width is 20cm. Therefore, the perimeter = 2 * (15cm + 20cm) = 65cm. Choice A (30cm), Choice B (55cm), and Choice D (75cm) are incorrect as they do not correctly calculate the perimeter of the given rectangle.

4. Change 0.015 to a fraction.

• A. 3/200
• B. 3/2000
• C. 15/1000
• D. 3/100

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To convert 0.015 to a fraction, we can rewrite it as 15/1000. Simplifying this fraction, we get 3/200. Therefore, the correct answer is A. Choice B (3/2000) is incorrect as the decimal 0.015 is equivalent to 15/1000, not 15/2000. Choice C (15/1000) is the initial form of 0.015 as a fraction, but it can be further simplified to 3/200. Choice D (3/100) is incorrect as it does not represent the decimal 0.015.

5. What is the boiling point of water?

• A. 100°C
• B. 98°C
• C. 99°C
• D. 102°C

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is 100°C (Choice A). The boiling point of water is the temperature at which it changes from a liquid to a gas. Under normal atmospheric pressure, water boils at 100°C. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not represent the standard boiling point of water. 98°C, 99°C, and 102°C do not correspond to the temperature at which water boils under normal conditions.
