1. How many liters are in 2,000 milliliters?

• A. 4 liters
• B. 1 liter
• C. 2 liters
• D. 4 liters

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is 2 liters. There are 1,000 milliliters in a liter. Therefore, 2,000 milliliters is equal to 2 liters. Choice A is incorrect because it incorrectly doubles the conversion. Choice B is incorrect as it represents the amount in milliliters, not liters. Choice D is a duplicate of choice A, which is incorrect.

2. How many ounces are in 4 quarts?

• A. 64 ounces
• B. 128 ounces
• C. 32 ounces
• D. 16 ounces

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 128 ounces. There are 32 ounces in a quart, so when you have 4 quarts, you multiply 4 by 32 to get the total number of ounces, which equals 128. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not reflect the correct conversion from quarts to ounces.

3. A lampshade is shaped like a frustum of a cone, with base diameters of 20cm and 10cm and a height of 15cm. What is its volume?

• A. 625 cu cm
• B. 1250 cu cm
• C. 1875 cu cm
• D. 2500 cu cm

Correct answer: C

Rationale: To find the volume of the frustum of a cone, divide it into two cones and calculate their volumes separately. The formula for the volume of a cone frustum involves the radii of both bases and the height. The volume of the frustum cone can be calculated as V = 1/3 * π * h * (R^2 + r^2 + R * r), where R is the larger radius, r is the smaller radius, and h is the height. Substituting the values, V = 1/3 * π * 15 * (10^2 + 20*10 + 20^2) = 1875 cu cm. Therefore, the correct answer is 1875 cu cm. Choice A, B, and D are incorrect as they do not correspond to the correct calculation of the frustum's volume.

4. What temperature in Fahrenheit is 50°C? (Enter numeric value only. If rounding is necessary, round to the nearest whole number.)

• A. 110°F
• B. 122°F
• C. 130°F
• D. 140°F

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To convert from Celsius to Fahrenheit, use the formula: F = (C × 9/5) + 32. Substituting 50°C: F = (50 × 9/5) + 32 = 122°F. Therefore, 50°C is approximately 122°F. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not reflect the accurate conversion of 50°C to Fahrenheit.

5. A group of 8 friends went out to eat at a restaurant. They decided to split the bill evenly. If the bill totaled $120, how much did each friend pay?

• A. $15
• B. $10
• C. $12
• D. $20

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To determine how much each friend paid, divide the total bill amount by the number of friends. In this scenario, $120 ÷ 8 friends = $15. Therefore, each friend paid $15. Choice B ($10) is incorrect because dividing $120 by 8 does not yield $10. Choice C ($12) is incorrect because dividing $120 by 8 does not yield $12. Choice D ($20) is incorrect because dividing $120 by 8 does not yield $20.
