1. A person consumed 75 grams of protein. This is 30% of the recommended daily intake (RDI) for protein. How many grams of protein does the person need to consume to meet the full RDI?

• A. 250 grams
• B. 225 grams
• C. 260 grams
• D. 300 grams

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To find the full RDI, divide the amount of protein consumed (75 grams) by 30% (or 0.30): 75 ÷ 0.30 = 250 grams. Therefore, the person needs 250 grams of protein to meet the full RDI. Choice A is correct because it accurately calculates the amount needed to reach the full RDI. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not correctly calculate the total amount of protein needed based on the given information.

2. How many ounces are in 3 quarts?

• A. 64 ounces
• B. 32 ounces
• C. 48 ounces
• D. 96 ounces

Correct answer: D

Rationale: There are 32 ounces in a quart. Therefore, 3 quarts would be equal to 3 quarts x 32 ounces = 96 ounces. The correct answer is D. Choice A, 64 ounces, is incorrect as it miscalculates the conversion from quarts to ounces. Choice B, 32 ounces, is the conversion for 1 quart, not 3 quarts. Choice C, 48 ounces, is also an incorrect calculation, not considering the correct conversion rate.

3. Convert 104°F to Celsius.

• A. 40°C
• B. 42°C
• C. 39°C
• D. 35°C

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To convert Fahrenheit to Celsius, you can use the formula: °C = (°F - 32) x 5/9. Plugging in the value, °C = (104 - 32) x 5/9 = 72 x 5/9 = 40°C. Therefore, 104°F is equal to 40°C. Choice A is correct. Choice B is incorrect as it is not the result of the conversion. Choice C is incorrect as it is not the result of the conversion. Choice D is incorrect as it is not the result of the conversion.

4. A bookshelf has triangular shelves with a base of 40cm and a height of 30cm. The depth of the shelf is 25cm. What is the volume of each shelf?

• A. 3000 cu cm
• B. 3750 cu cm
• C. 5000 cu cm
• D. 7500 cu cm

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To find the volume of the triangular shelf, first calculate the area of the triangle (1/2 * base * height) which is (1/2 * 40 * 30) = 600 sq cm. Then, multiply this area by the depth of the shelf (600 * 25) = 15000 cu cm. Therefore, the volume of each shelf is 3750 cu cm. Choice A, C, and D are incorrect as they do not correctly calculate the volume based on the dimensions provided.

5. Divide: 5,117 ÷ 31 =

• A. 109 r3
• B. 115 r14
• C. 133 r5
• D. 165 r2

Correct answer: D

Rationale: When dividing 5,117 by 31, the quotient is 165 with a remainder of 2. The correct answer is 165 r2. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect as they do not reflect the correct division result. Choice A is close but has the wrong remainder. Choices B and C have incorrect quotients and remainders, making them inaccurate. Therefore, the correct answer is D, 165 r2.
