1. Four more than a number is 2 less than 5\6 of another number. Which equation represents this?

• A. x + 4 = 5\6y - 2
• B. x + 4 = 2 - 5\6y
• C. 4 + x = 5\6y + 2
• D. x + 4 = 5\6y - 2

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The equation that represents the relationship is x + 4 = 5\6y - 2.

2. After a hurricane struck a Pacific island, donations began flooding into a disaster relief organization. The organization provided four options for donors. What percentage of the funds was donated to support construction costs?

• A. 49%
• B. 23%
• C. 18%
• D. 10%

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B (23%). The information was obtained from the pie chart which indicated that 23% of the funds were allocated to support construction costs. Choice A (49%), Choice C (18%), and Choice D (10%) are incorrect as they do not reflect the accurate percentage designated for construction costs according to the data provided.

3. What is the perimeter of a square with a side length of 6 cm?

• A. 24 cm
• B. 12 cm
• C. 18 cm
• D. 36 cm

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The perimeter of a square is calculated by multiplying the side length by 4 since all sides are equal. In this case, the side length is 6 cm, so the perimeter is 4 * 6 = 24 cm. Therefore, choice A, 24 cm, is the correct answer. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not reflect the correct calculation for the perimeter of a square.

4. A car travels 60 miles in 1 hour. How long will it take to travel 180 miles at the same speed?

• A. 3 hours
• B. 4 hours
• C. 2.5 hours
• D. 5 hours

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To find the time needed to travel 180 miles at the same speed of 60 miles per hour, you divide the total distance by the speed. 180 miles ÷ 60 mph = 3 hours. Therefore, it will take 3 hours to travel 180 miles at the given speed. Choice B, 4 hours, is incorrect as it does not align with the calculation. Choice C, 2.5 hours, is incorrect as it underestimates the time needed for the distance. Choice D, 5 hours, is incorrect as it overestimates the time required based on the given speed.

5. A bucket can hold 2500 mL. How many liters can the bucket hold?

• A. 0.25 L
• B. 25 L
• C. 2.5 L
• D. 250 L

Correct answer: C

Rationale: To convert milliliters (mL) to liters (L), you divide by 1000 since 1000 mL is equivalent to 1 liter. Therefore, 2500 mL is equal to 2.5 liters (2500 mL ÷ 1000 = 2.5 L). Choice A (0.25 L) is incorrect as it represents a conversion error by a factor of 10. Choice B (25 L) is incorrect as it incorrectly multiplies instead of dividing by 1000. Choice D (250 L) is incorrect as it overestimates the conversion by a factor of 100.
