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. Solve for x. x/250 = 3/500

• A. 1.5
• B. 2
• C. 1500
• D. 25

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To solve the proportion x/250 = 3/500, cross multiply to get 500x = 750. Then solve for x by dividing both sides by 500, which results in x = 1.5. Therefore, the correct answer is A. Choice B (2) is incorrect because the correct solution is 1.5, not 2. Choice C (1500) is incorrect as it does not align with the correct calculation of the proportion. Choice D (25) is incorrect and does not match the correct solution obtained by solving the proportion.

3. What is 60% of 90?

• A. 54
• B. 58
• C. 60
• D. 65

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To find 60% of 90, you multiply 90 by 0.60 (which is the decimal form of 60%). So, 90 * 0.60 = 54. Therefore, 60% of 90 is 54. Choice A is correct. Choice B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not reflect the correct calculation for finding 60% of 90.

4. If a dice is rolled, what is the probability of getting an even number?

• A. 16%
• B. 33%
• C. 66%
• D. 50%

Correct answer: D

Rationale: When rolling a standard six-sided die, there are three even numbers (2, 4, 6) out of a total of six possible outcomes (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6). The probability of rolling an even number can be calculated as the number of favorable outcomes (3) divided by the total number of outcomes (6), which equals 3/6 = 50%. Therefore, the correct answer is D. Choice A (16%) is incorrect because it does not represent the probability of rolling an even number. Choice B (33%) is incorrect as it does not reflect the correct probability. Choice C (66%) is incorrect as well since it overestimates the probability.

5. The height of a building is 150 feet. If each floor of the building is 12 feet high, how many floors are in the building?

• A. 13 floors
• B. 15 floors
• C. 10 floors
• D. 18 floors

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To determine the number of floors in the building, divide the total height of the building (150 feet) by the height of each floor (12 feet). 150 feet ÷ 12 feet per floor = 12.5 floors. Since floors cannot be in fractions, the answer is rounded down to the nearest whole number, which is 13 floors. Therefore, the correct answer is A: 13 floors. Choice B (15 floors) is incorrect because the calculation results in 12.5 floors, which should be rounded down. Choices C (10 floors) and D (18 floors) are incorrect as they do not accurately reflect the division result and rounding down process.
