1. A woman received a bottle of perfume as a present. The bottle contains 3/4 oz of perfume. How many milliliters is this?

• A. 25 mL
• B. 22.5 mL
• C. 15 mL
• D. 20 mL

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To convert ounces to milliliters, multiply the number of ounces by 29.5735. 3/4 oz × 29.5735 ≈ 22.5 mL. Therefore, the correct answer is 22.5 mL. Choice A (25 mL) is incorrect as it does not result from the correct conversion. Choices C (15 mL) and D (20 mL) are also incorrect conversions.

2. A birdbath has a hemispherical bowl with a diameter of 30cm. What is its volume?

• A. 675 cu cm
• B. 1350 cu cm
• C. 2700 cu cm
• D. 4050 cu cm

Correct answer: C

Rationale: To find the volume of a hemispherical bowl, we use half the formula for a sphere's volume: (2/3) * π * (radius)^3. Given the diameter is 30cm, the radius is half of that, which is 15cm. Substitute the radius into the formula: (2/3) * π * (15cm)^3 ≈ 2700 cu cm. Therefore, the correct volume is approximately 2700 cu cm. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect as they do not correctly calculate the volume of the hemispherical bowl.

3. What is the volume of an Egyptian model pyramid with a square base side length of 10cm and a height of 8cm?

• A. 20 cu cm
• B. 40 cu cm
• C. 80 cu cm
• D. 160 cu cm

Correct answer: D

Rationale: To find the volume of a pyramid, we use the formula: Volume = (1/3) * base area * height. First, calculate the base area by squaring the base side length: 10cm * 10cm = 100 sq cm. Substitute the values into the formula: Volume = (1/3) * 100 sq cm * 8cm = 80 cu cm. Therefore, the correct answer is 160 cu cm. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because they do not correctly calculate the volume of the pyramid based on the given dimensions.

4. What is the result of adding 12 + 2 + 312?

• A. 936
• B. 374.4
• C. 326
• D. 318.24

Correct answer: C

Rationale: To find the sum of 12 + 2 + 312, you simply need to add these numbers together. 12 + 2 = 14, and when you add 312 to 14, you get the correct total of 326. Therefore, the correct answer is C. Choice A (936), choice B (374.4), and choice D (318.24) are incorrect as they do not represent the correct sum of the given numbers.

5. How many ounces are in 2.5 quarts?

• A. 64 ounces
• B. 40 ounces
• C. 32 ounces
• D. 80 ounces

Correct answer: D

Rationale: To convert quarts to ounces, you need to know that 1 quart is equal to 32 ounces. Therefore, to find out how many ounces are in 2.5 quarts, you multiply 2.5 by 32, which equals 80 ounces. So, the correct answer is 80 ounces. Choice A (64 ounces) is incorrect as it miscalculates the conversion. Choice B (40 ounces) is incorrect as it does not consider the correct conversion factor. Choice C (32 ounces) is incorrect as it provides the conversion for 1 quart only, not for 2.5 quarts.
