1. Convert 0.007 kilograms to grams.

• A. 7 grams
• B. 70 grams
• C. 0.07 grams
• D. 0.70 grams

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To convert kilograms to grams, you need to multiply by 1000 since there are 1000 grams in a kilogram. Therefore, 0.007 kilograms is equal to 0.007 x 1000 = 7 grams. Choice A is correct. Choice B is incorrect as it incorrectly multiplies by 10 instead of 1000. Choice C is incorrect as it incorrectly moves the decimal point one place to the right. Choice D is incorrect as it incorrectly moves the decimal point two places to the right.

2. If a train travels at 80 kilometers per hour, how many kilometers will it travel in 3 hours?

• A. 240 kilometers
• B. 160 kilometers
• C. 240 kilometers
• D. 210 kilometers

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To find the total distance traveled, you need to multiply the speed of the train by the time it travels. So, 80 km/h * 3 hours = 240 kilometers. Therefore, the correct answer is 240 kilometers. Choice B (160 kilometers) is incorrect because it is the result of multiplying the speed by 2 hours instead of 3. Choice C (240 kilometers) is the same as the correct answer, making it redundant. Choice D (210 kilometers) is incorrect as it is the result of multiplying the speed by 2.5 hours instead of 3.

3. 7 is divisible by which of the following numbers?

• A. 2 only
• B. 3 only
• C. 1 and 7 only
• D. 2, 3, and 7

Correct answer: D

Rationale: Rationale: 1. 7 is divisible by 1 because every number is divisible by 1. 2. 7 is divisible by 7 because any number is divisible by itself. 3. 7 is not divisible by 2 because 7 is an odd number and not divisible by 2. 4. 7 is not divisible by 3 because the sum of the digits of 7 (7) is not divisible by 3. Therefore, 7 is divisible by 1, 7, and itself (7), making the correct answer D) 2, 3, and 7.

4. How many inches are in 2 yards?

• A. 36 inches
• B. 48 inches
• C. 60 inches
• D. 72 inches

Correct answer: D

Rationale: To convert yards to inches, remember that there are 36 inches in a yard. Therefore, when you have 2 yards, multiplying 36 inches by 2 results in 72 inches. Choice A, 36 inches, is the number of inches in 1 yard, not 2 yards. Choice B, 48 inches, and Choice C, 60 inches, are incorrect calculations based on the conversion factor of 36 inches per yard.

5. A train travels at a constant speed of 60 mph for 2 hours. How many miles did the train travel?

• A. 120 miles
• B. 180 miles
• C. 100 miles
• D. 240 miles

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To determine the distance traveled by the train, you multiply the speed by the time: 60 mph × 2 hours = 120 miles. Therefore, the correct answer is 120 miles. Choice B, 180 miles, is incorrect as it results from multiplying the speed by 3 hours instead of 2. Choice C, 100 miles, is incorrect as it results from multiplying the speed by 1.5 hours. Choice D, 240 miles, is incorrect as it results from multiplying the speed by 4 hours instead of 2.
