1. What is the volume of a birthday party hat with a cone-shaped top having a radius of 5cm and a height of 12cm?

• A. 60 cu cm
• B. 120 cu cm
• C. 150 cu cm
• D. 180 cu cm

Correct answer: C

Rationale: To find the volume of a cone, we use the formula: (1/3) * π * (radius)^2 * height. Substituting the given values: (1/3) * π * (5cm)^2 * 12cm = 150 cu cm. Therefore, the correct answer is C. Choice A, B, and D are incorrect as they do not correspond to the correct calculation using the formula for the volume of a cone.

2. Add: 1.332 + 0.067

• A. 1.399
• B. 1.4
• C. 1.402
• D. 1.5

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To find the sum of 1.332 and 0.067, add the two numbers correctly: 1.332 + 0.067 = 1.399. Therefore, the correct answer is A. Choice B (1.4) is incorrect because it rounds down the sum, not considering the precise value. Choice C (1.402) is incorrect as it results from adding 1.332 and 0.070 instead of 0.067. Choice D (1.5) is not the correct sum of the given numbers.

3. If you have 4 kilograms, how many grams would you have?

• A. 400 grams
• B. 4000 grams
• C. 40 grams
• D. 100 grams

Correct answer: B

Rationale: In the metric system, there are 1000 grams in 1 kilogram. To convert kilograms to grams, you multiply the number of kilograms by 1000. Therefore, 4 kilograms would equal 4000 grams. Choice A (400 grams) is incorrect because it is the result of multiplying by 100, not 1000. Choice C (40 grams) is incorrect as it is the result of dividing by 1000 instead of multiplying. Choice D (100 grams) is incorrect as it is a random figure and not the correct conversion from kilograms to grams.

4. Jeff needed a 6 ft. rope. He found 2 pieces of rope and thought maybe he could tie them together. One rope was 40 inches and the other was 36 inches. How long would the rope be, and would he have enough rope if he ties them together?

• A. No, the rope would be 76 inches.
• B. Yes, the rope would be 76 inches.
• C. Yes, the rope would be 6 feet.
• D. No, the rope would be 6 feet.

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To convert 6 feet to inches, we multiply 6 by 12 (1 foot = 12 inches), giving us 72 inches needed. By adding the lengths of the two ropes (40 inches + 36 inches), Jeff would have a total of 76 inches, which is more than the 72 inches required. Therefore, he would have enough rope if he ties them together. Choice A and D are incorrect because they misinterpret the conversion from feet to inches. Choice C is incorrect as it does not consider the actual combined length of the two ropes.

5. How many ounces are there in 4 cups?

• A. 16 ounces
• B. 24 ounces
• C. 28 ounces
• D. 32 ounces

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To find out how many ounces are in 4 cups, you need to multiply 8 ounces (the number of ounces in 1 cup) by 4 cups. This calculation results in 32 ounces. However, the question asks for the number of ounces in 4 cups, not the total ounces in 4 cups. Therefore, there are 16 ounces in 4 cups. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not represent the correct conversion of ounces in 4 cups.
