1. 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.

2. 15\25 + 42\52 = ?

• A. 1 3/10
• B. 1 1/10
• C. 1\10\2024
• D. 3\10\2024

Correct answer: A

Rationale: 15\25 + 42\52 simplifies to 1 3\10.

3. What is the product of multiplying 44.44 by 55.55?

• A. 2,468.64
• B. 2,500.00
• C. 2,450.45
• D. 2,470.00

Correct answer: A

Rationale: When multiplying decimal numbers like 44.44 and 55.55, align them properly and multiply each place accurately. To find the product of 44.44 and 55.55, you get 2,468.64. Therefore, the correct answer is choice A, 2,468.64. Choice B, 2,500.00, is incorrect as it is the result of rounding up. Choice C, 2,450.45, is incorrect as it is not the result of multiplying 44.44 by 55.55. Choice D, 2,470.00, is incorrect as it is not the correct product of 44.44 and 55.55.

4. If 9 out of 75 band members missed practice, what percentage of band members missed practice?

• A. 10%
• B. 12%
• C. 15%
• D. 18%

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To calculate the percentage of band members who missed practice, divide the number of members who missed practice (9) by the total number of band members (75) and multiply by 100. (9/75) * 100 = 12%. Therefore, 12% of the band members missed practice. Choice A (10%) is incorrect because it is not the correct calculation result. Choices C (15%) and D (18%) are also incorrect as they do not reflect the accurate percentage of band members who missed practice.

5. Sarah had 1 quart of milk. How many ounces of milk is that?

• A. 16 ounces
• B. 24 ounces
• C. 32 ounces
• D. 48 ounces

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is 32 ounces. One quart is equivalent to 32 ounces. To convert quarts to ounces, you need to know that 1 quart equals 32 ounces. Therefore, 1 quart of milk is equal to 32 ounces. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect as they do not accurately convert 1 quart to ounces.
