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. How many liters are in 8,000 milliliters?

• A. 0.8 liters
• B. 8 liters
• C. 0.8 liters
• D. 0.08 liters

Correct answer: B

Rationale: There are 1,000 milliliters in a liter. To convert milliliters to liters, you divide by 1,000. Therefore, 8,000 milliliters ÷ 1,000 = 8 liters. This makes option B the correct answer. Option A, 0.8 liters, is incorrect as it is 1/10th of the correct answer. Option C, 0.8 liters (repeated), is also incorrect. Option D, 0.08 liters, is incorrect as it is 1/100th of the correct answer.

3. Subtract 2 & 5/8 - 7/8 and reduce.

• A. 1 & 5/8
• B. 1 & 6/8
• C. 1 & 3/4
• D. 1 & ¼

Correct answer: C

Rationale: To subtract 7/8 from 2 & 5/8, you need to borrow 1 whole from the 2, making it 1 whole and 13/8. Then, subtracting 7/8 from 13/8 results in 6/8, which simplifies to 3/4. Therefore, the answer is 1 & 3/4. Choice A (1 & 5/8) is incorrect as the correct answer is 1 & 3/4. Choice B (1 & 6/8) can be simplified to 1 & 3/4, which is the correct answer. Choice D (1 & ¼) is incorrect as the subtraction result is greater than 1, making the whole number part 1.

4. What is 80% of $500?

• A. $425
• B. $450
• C. $350
• D. $400

Correct answer: D

Rationale: To find 80% of $500, you multiply 0.8 by 500. Therefore, 0.8 x 500 = $400. This means that option D, $400, is the correct answer. Option A, $425, is incorrect because it is higher than the calculated value. Option B, $450, is also higher than the correct answer. Option C, $350, is lower than the calculated value. Hence, the correct answer is D, $400.

5. What number is 80 125% of?

• A. 48
• B. 64
• C. 68
• D. 78

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To find the number that 80 is 125% of, we can set up the equation: x = 80 / 1.25. Solving this equation gives x = 64. Therefore, 80 is 125% of 64. Choice A (48) is incorrect because it is not the correct value that 80 is 125% of. Choice C (68) is incorrect as it is not the value that satisfies the given percentage relationship. Choice D (78) is incorrect as it does not match the calculation result.
