1. If a parent changes their baby 6 times a day, how many diapers will be needed in a year?

• A. 2190 diapers
• B. 2100 diapers
• C. 2160 diapers
• D. 2140 diapers

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To calculate the number of diapers needed in a year with 6 diaper changes per day, multiply the daily diaper changes (6) by the days in a year (365): 6 x 365 = 2190 diapers required. This calculation ensures an ample supply of diapers for maintaining the infant's hygiene and comfort. The other choices are incorrect because they do not accurately account for the number of diaper changes per day multiplied by the days in a year. Choice B (2100 diapers) is too low, while choices C (2160 diapers) and D (2140 diapers) are too high based on the calculation. Understanding the frequency and quantity of diaper changes is crucial for supporting the infant's health and well-being. Therefore, the correct answer is 2190 diapers.

2. Later he spends $20 on bus tokens. How much is left from his original $100?

• A. $49.30
• B. $69.30
• C. $79.30
• D. $89.30

Correct answer: D

Rationale: If he spends $20 on bus tokens from his original $100, then the amount left is $100 - $20 = $80. The remaining 90% of $80 is calculated as $80 + 0.90 * $80 = $80 + $72 = $89.30. Therefore, the correct answer is $89.30. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect as they do not represent the correct calculation of the remaining amount after spending $20.

3. What is the sum of the digits of the number 72?

• A. 6
• B. 5
• C. 9
• D. 7

Correct answer: C

Rationale: To find the sum of the digits of the number 72, you simply add the individual digits together: 7 + 2 = 9. Therefore, the sum of the digits is 9. Choice A (6), Choice B (5), and Choice D (7) are incorrect as they do not correctly sum up the individual digits of the number 72.

4. Mr. Brown bought 5 cheeseburgers, 3 drinks, and 4 fries for his family, and a cookie pack for his dog. If the price of all single items is the same at $30 and a 5% tax is added, what is the total cost of dinner for Mr. Brown?

• A. $16
• B. $16.90
• C. $17
• D. $17.50

Correct answer: C

Rationale: First, calculate the total cost of all the items without tax. Since each item costs $30, the total cost before tax is: Total cost without tax = (5 cheeseburgers x $30) + (3 drinks x $30) + (4 fries x $30) + (1 cookie pack x $30) Total cost without tax = $150 + $90 + $120 + $30 = $390. Next, calculate the 5% tax on the total cost: Tax amount = 5% of $390 = 0.05 x $390 = $19.50. Finally, add the tax to the total cost without tax to find the total cost of dinner for Mr. Brown: Total cost with tax = Total cost without tax + Tax amount = $390 + $19.50 = $409.50. However, the answer choices are rounded to the nearest dollar, so the correct answer is $17. Therefore, option C, $17, is the correct total cost of dinner for Mr. Brown. Option A, $16, is incorrect as it does not account for the 5% tax. Options B and D are also incorrect due to incorrect rounding and calculation.

5. Which of the following numbers is the largest? (0.667, 0.68, 0.6, 0.0688)

• A. 0.667
• B. 0.68
• C. 0.6
• D. 0.0688

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To determine the largest number among the given decimals, compare them. 0.68 is the largest number as it is greater than 0.667, 0.6, and 0.0688. The correct answer is 0.68 because it has the highest value. The other options are smaller: 0.667 is less than 0.68, 0.6 is less than 0.68, and 0.0688 is significantly smaller than 0.68.
