1. How many grams are in 7 kilograms?

• A. 7000 grams
• B. 70 grams
• C. 700 grams
• D. 70,000 grams

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To convert kilograms to grams, you need to multiply by 1,000 since there are 1,000 grams in a kilogram. Therefore, 7 kilograms is equal to 7 x 1,000 = 7,000 grams. The correct answer is 7000 grams. Choice B (70 grams) is incorrect as it represents the conversion of 7 kilograms to grams without considering the correct multiplier. Choice C (700 grams) is incorrect as it is a tenth of the correct conversion. Choice D (70,000 grams) is incorrect as it is ten times the correct conversion.

2. How many yards are in a mile?

• A. 1,760
• B. 1,700
• C. 1,800
• D. 1,750

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: 1,760. According to the standard distance conversion, there are 1,760 yards in a mile. This conversion is widely accepted and used in various fields. Choice B, 1,700, is incorrect as it does not correspond to the standard conversion. Choice C, 1,800, represents a different value and is therefore incorrect. Choice D, 1,750, is not the accurate conversion for yards in a mile and is incorrect.

3. Multiply: 32 × 5 and express the result in decimal form.

• A. 0.0016
• B. 0.016
• C. 0.16
• D. 1.6

Correct answer: D

Rationale: To find the product of 32 and 5, you simply multiply the two numbers: 32 × 5 = 160. Therefore, when expressed in decimal form, the answer is 1.6. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect as they do not represent the correct multiplication result in decimal form. Choice A is way too small, choice B is also too small, and choice C is close but still not the correct result.

4. A man is reading. He reads two chapters a day. How long will it take if there are 6 pages per chapter and 798 pages total?

• A. 66 & 1/2
• B. 399
• C. 75 & 1/2
• D. 133

Correct answer: A

Rationale: First, calculate how many pages the man reads per day. Since he reads two chapters a day and each chapter has 6 pages: 2 chapters/day × 6 pages/chapter = 12 pages/day Now, divide the total number of pages by the number of pages he reads per day: 798 pages ÷ 12 pages/day = 66 1/2 days Thus, it will take him 66 & 1/2 days to finish the book. Therefore, the correct answer is A. 66 & 1/2. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not correspond to the correct calculation based on the given information.

5. How many feet are in 3 yards?

• A. 18 feet
• B. 9 feet
• C. 12 feet
• D. 27 feet

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To convert yards to feet, you multiply by 3, as 1 yard is equal to 3 feet. Therefore, 3 yards equals 3 x 3 = 9 feet. Choice A (18 feet) is incorrect because it multiplies by 2 instead of 3. Choice C (12 feet) is incorrect as it multiplies by 4 instead of 3. Choice D (27 feet) is incorrect as it multiplies by 9 instead of 3.
