1. 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.

2. A stop sign has five equal sides, each measuring 25cm. What is its perimeter?

• A. 100cm
• B. 125cm
• C. 150cm
• D. 175cm

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Rationale: - Since a stop sign has five equal sides, each measuring 25cm, the perimeter can be calculated by adding up the lengths of all five sides. - Perimeter = 25cm + 25cm + 25cm + 25cm + 25cm = 125cm - Therefore, the perimeter of the stop sign is 125cm.

3. How many pounds are in 160 ounces?

• A. 10 pounds
• B. 8 pounds
• C. 5 pounds
• D. 12 pounds

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: 10 pounds. There are 16 ounces in a pound. To convert 160 ounces to pounds, you need to divide 160 by 16, which equals 10 pounds. Choice B, 8 pounds, is incorrect because it does not account for the correct conversion factor. Choice C, 5 pounds, is incorrect as it is not the result of dividing 160 by 16. Choice D, 12 pounds, is incorrect as it overestimates the conversion.

4. What is 54% of $789.56?

• A. $426.36
• B. $426.37
• C. $363.20
• D. $526.38

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To calculate 54% of $789.56, you multiply 0.54 by 789.56, which equals $426.36. Therefore, choice A, $426.36, is the correct answer. Choice B, $426.37, is incorrect as it is a slightly higher value. Choice C, $363.20, is incorrect as it is significantly lower than the correct answer. Choice D, $526.38, is incorrect as it is higher than the correct calculation result.

5. Sally was able to eat 5/8 of her lunch. John ate 75% of his lunch. Who ate more?

• A. John
• B. Sally
• C. Both ate the same
• D. Cannot be determined

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To compare the portions eaten by Sally and John, it's necessary to express both in the same denominator. Since 75% is equivalent to 6/8, John ate 6/8 while Sally ate 5/8 of their lunches. Therefore, John ate more than Sally. Choice A is correct. Choice B is incorrect as John ate 6/8 compared to Sally's 5/8. Choice C is incorrect as the amounts eaten are different. Choice D is incorrect as it can be determined based on the given information.
