1. If a dice is rolled, what is the probability of getting an even number?

• A. 16%
• B. 33%
• C. 66%
• D. 50%

Correct answer: D

Rationale: When rolling a standard six-sided die, there are three even numbers (2, 4, 6) out of a total of six possible outcomes (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6). The probability of rolling an even number can be calculated as the number of favorable outcomes (3) divided by the total number of outcomes (6), which equals 3/6 = 50%. Therefore, the correct answer is D. Choice A (16%) is incorrect because it does not represent the probability of rolling an even number. Choice B (33%) is incorrect as it does not reflect the correct probability. Choice C (66%) is incorrect as well since it overestimates the probability.

2. How many milliliters are in 6 liters?

• A. 60 milliliters
• B. 6000 milliliters
• C. 600 milliliters
• D. 0.6 milliliters

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 6000 milliliters. There are 1,000 milliliters in a liter. To convert liters to milliliters, you multiply the number of liters by 1,000. Therefore, 6 liters = 6 × 1,000 = 6,000 milliliters. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not correctly convert liters to milliliters.

3. The height of a building is 150 feet. If each floor of the building is 12 feet high, how many floors are in the building?

• A. 13 floors
• B. 15 floors
• C. 10 floors
• D. 18 floors

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To determine the number of floors in the building, divide the total height of the building (150 feet) by the height of each floor (12 feet). 150 feet ÷ 12 feet per floor = 12.5 floors. Since floors cannot be in fractions, the answer is rounded down to the nearest whole number, which is 13 floors. Therefore, the correct answer is A: 13 floors. Choice B (15 floors) is incorrect because the calculation results in 12.5 floors, which should be rounded down. Choices C (10 floors) and D (18 floors) are incorrect as they do not accurately reflect the division result and rounding down process.

4. Solve for x if x=11. x+(44/2x)

• A. 2.5
• B. 33
• C. 55
• D. 13

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Substitute x=11 into the expression: 11 + (44 / 2*11) = 11 + (44 / 22) = 11 + 2 = 13 Therefore, the correct answer is 13. Choice A (2.5) is incorrect as the correct result is 13, not 2.5. Choice B (33) is incorrect because it does not result from the given expression. Choice C (55) is incorrect as it does not match the calculated value. Choice D (13) is incorrect because the correct solution is 13, not 2.5.

5. What is the freezing point of water in degrees Celsius?

• A. 0°C
• B. 100°C
• C. 50°C
• D. 25°C

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is 0°C. The freezing point of water is 0°C under standard conditions. Water freezes at 0°C and boils at 100°C. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not represent the freezing point of water. 100°C is the boiling point of water, 50°C and 25°C are not related to the freezing point of water.
