1. How many liters are in 5000 milliliters?

• A. 5 liters
• B. 4 liters
• C. 6 liters
• D. 5.5 liters

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To convert milliliters to liters, you divide by 1000 since 1000 milliliters make up 1 liter. In this case, 5000 milliliters divided by 1000 milliliters per liter equals 5 liters (5000 mL ÷ 1000 mL/L = 5 L). Therefore, the correct answer is A: 5 liters. Choice B, 4 liters, is incorrect because 5000 milliliters is equivalent to 5 liters, not 4. Choice C, 6 liters, is incorrect as it is not the accurate conversion from milliliters to liters in this case. Choice D, 5.5 liters, is incorrect as it does not reflect the correct conversion of 5000 milliliters to liters, which is 5 liters.

2. Lulu is 5 years younger than her sister, who is 7 years older than their 15-year-old cousin. How old is Lulu?

• A. 27
• B. 22
• C. 19
• D. 17

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Let Lulu's sister's age be x. According to the given information, x = 15 (cousin's age) + 7 = 22. So, Lulu's sister is 22 years old. Since Lulu is 5 years younger than her sister, Lulu's age is 22 - 5 = 17. Therefore, Lulu is 17 years old. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because they do not correspond to the calculations based on the information provided in the question.

3. How many centimeters are in 6 meters?

• A. 600 cm
• B. 60 cm
• C. 1000 cm
• D. 500 cm

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To convert meters to centimeters, you need to multiply the number of meters by 100 since there are 100 centimeters in 1 meter. Therefore, 6 meters is equal to 6 * 100 = 600 cm. Choice A is correct. Choice B (60 cm) is incorrect because it represents the conversion of 0.6 meters to centimeters. Choice C (1000 cm) is incorrect because it represents the conversion of 10 meters to centimeters. Choice D (500 cm) is incorrect because it is halfway between the conversions of 5 meters (500 cm) and 6 meters (600 cm).

4. What is the result of adding 7/8 + 9/10 + 6/5?

• A. 3 & 39/40
• B. 3 & 22/23
• C. 22/23
• D. 30

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To add fractions, you need to find a common denominator. The common denominator for 8, 10, and 5 is 40. Then, convert each fraction: 7/8 = 35/40, 9/10 = 36/40, and 6/5 = 24/40. Now, add the fractions: 35/40 + 36/40 + 24/40 = 95/40, which simplifies to 2 15/40 or 2 3/8. Therefore, 7/8 + 9/10 + 6/5 = 3 & 39/40. Choice B is incorrect because it does not represent the correct addition of the fractions. Choice C is incorrect as it does not account for the whole number part. Choice D is incorrect as it is not the sum of the fractions and whole numbers.

5. If Mr. Parker owns 150 shares of stock in Stark Industries and receives $180.00 per year in dividends, how much does Mr. Rogers receive for an annual dividend if he owns 400 shares?

• A. $480
• B. $500
• C. $450
• D. $72,000

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To find out how much Mr. Rogers receives for an annual dividend with 400 shares, we can set up a proportion: 400 shares is to X dollars as 150 shares is to $180. This gives us 400 * $180 / 150 = $480 in annual dividends. Therefore, the correct answer is A. Choice B, $500, is incorrect because it does not consider the proportionality of shares to dividend amount. Choice C, $450, is incorrect as it does not reflect the correct calculation based on the given information. Choice D, $72,000, is significantly higher and incorrect as it does not align with the proportionality of shares and dividends.
