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. Round to the nearest whole number: What is 18% of 600?

• A. 108
• B. 76
• C. 254
• D. 176

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To find 18% of 600, you multiply 600 by 0.18, which equals 108. Since 108 is already a whole number, when rounding to the nearest whole number, it remains the same. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not represent the correct calculation for finding 18% of 600.

3. Divide: 727 ÷ 6 =

• A. 120 r1
• B. 120 r3
• C. 121 r1
• D. 127 r3

Correct answer: C

Rationale: When dividing 727 by 6, the quotient is 121 with a remainder of 1. The correct answer is, therefore, 121 r1. Choice A (120 r1) is incorrect as the quotient is 121, not 120. Choice B (120 r3) is also incorrect as the remainder should be 1, not 3. Choice D (127 r3) is incorrect as both the quotient and remainder are different from the correct values obtained by dividing 727 by 6.

4. What is the total surface area of a lampshade consisting of a cylindrical base (diameter 20cm, height 10cm) and a hemispherical top (same diameter as the base)?

• A. 785 sq cm
• B. 1130 sq cm
• C. 1570 sq cm
• D. 2055 sq cm

Correct answer: D

Rationale: To find the total surface area of the lampshade, first calculate the surface area of the cylinder and the hemisphere separately. 1. Surface area of the cylinder = 2πr² + 2πrh = 2π(10)² + 2π(10)(20) = 400π + 400π = 800π cm². 2. Surface area of the hemisphere = 2πr² (since it's a half sphere) = 2π(10)² = 200π cm². Adding both areas gives the total surface area: 800π + 200π = 1000π cm². Now, calculate the numerical value: 1000π ≈ 3141.59 cm², which is approximately equal to 2055 cm². Therefore, the correct answer is 2055 sq cm. Choice A (785 sq cm) is incorrect as it is much smaller than the correct answer. Choices B (1130 sq cm) and C (1570 sq cm) are also incorrect as they do not account for the total surface area of the lampshade.

5. How many inches are in 1.5 yards?

• A. 54 inches
• B. 60 inches
• C. 72 inches
• D. 84 inches

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To convert yards to inches, you multiply the number of yards by 36 (since there are 36 inches in a yard). So, 1.5 yards × 36 inches/yard = 54 inches. Therefore, the correct answer is A. Choice B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not correctly convert yards to inches.
