1. What number is 6 equal to 15% of?

• A. 0.9
• B. 40
• C. 80
• D. 90

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To find the number that 6 is equal to 15% of, we set up the equation 0.15x = 6, where x is the unknown number. To solve for x, we divide 6 by 0.15, which gives us x = 40. Therefore, 6 is equal to 15% of the number 40. Choice A (0.9) is incorrect as it is not the result of dividing 6 by 0.15. Choices C (80) and D (90) are incorrect as they do not satisfy the equation 0.15x = 6.

2. What is the area of a rectangular room with a length of 12 meters and a width of 10 meters?

• A. 120 square meters
• B. 130 square meters
• C. 140 square meters
• D. 100 square meters

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: 120 square meters. To find the area of a rectangle, you multiply its length by its width. In this case, the length is 12 meters and the width is 10 meters. Therefore, the area of the room is 12m * 10m = 120 square meters. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not correctly calculate the area of the room based on its dimensions.

3. What is the probability of rolling an even number on a six-sided die?

• A. 50%
• B. 16.70%
• C. 25%
• D. 33.30%

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A, 50%. A standard six-sided die has three even numbers (2, 4, 6) out of six possible outcomes. The probability of rolling an even number is therefore 3 out of 6, which simplifies to 50%. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not accurately reflect the probability of rolling an even number on a six-sided die.

4. Subtract 12 - 7 4\5.

• A. 5 1\5
• B. 5 2\5
• C. 4 5\6
• D. 3 1\3

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Subtract the whole numbers and then subtract the fractions: 12 - 7 4\5 = 5 1\5.

5. Multiply: 5.04 × 2 =

• A. 1.008
• B. 10.08
• C. 10.8
• D. 18

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To multiply 5.04 by 2, you simply multiply the two numbers together: 5.04 x 2 = 10.08. Therefore, the correct answer is B. Choice A (1.008) is incorrect as it represents the result of dividing 5.04 by 5 instead of multiplying. Choice C (10.8) is incorrect as it is the result of rounding 10.08 to the nearest whole number. Choice D (18) is incorrect as it results from adding 5.04 and 2 instead of multiplying.
