1. How many milliliters are in 4 liters?

• A. 40 milliliters
• B. 40 milliliters
• C. 4000 milliliters
• D. 4 milliliters

Correct answer: C

Rationale: To convert liters to milliliters, you must remember that 1 liter is equal to 1,000 milliliters. Therefore, to find out how many milliliters are in 4 liters, you multiply 4 by 1,000. This gives you a total of 4,000 milliliters in 4 liters. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because they do not correctly convert liters to milliliters. A and B incorrectly represent 40 milliliters, which would be the result if you mistakenly multiplied by 10 instead of 1,000. Choice D is even further from the correct answer, as it suggests only 4 milliliters, which is significantly less than the actual conversion of 4 liters to milliliters.

2. Solve for x: 2x - 7 = 9.

• A. x = 10
• B. x = 7
• C. x = 8
• D. x = 5

Correct answer: C

Rationale: To solve the equation 2x - 7 = 9, first, add 7 to both sides to isolate the variable: 2x = 16. Then, divide by 2 to solve for x: x = 8. Choice A (x = 10) is incorrect because the solution is x = 8, not 10. Choice B (x = 7) is incorrect as it does not correctly solve the equation. Choice D (x = 5) is incorrect as it does not yield the correct solution for x.

3. What is the result of dividing 40.3 by 4.8?

• A. 7.5
• B. 8.4
• C. 6.2
• D. 9.1

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To divide 40.3 by 4.8, you perform the calculation: 40.3 ÷ 4.8 ≈ 8.4. Therefore, the correct answer is 8.4. Choice A (7.5) is incorrect as it is the result of dividing 40.3 by 5.4. Choice C (6.2) is incorrect as it is the result of dividing 40.3 by 6.5. Choice D (9.1) is incorrect as it is the result of dividing 40.3 by 4.4.

4. What is three tenths of 90?

• A. 18
• B. 45
• C. 27
• D. 36

Correct answer: C

Rationale: To find three tenths of 90, you need to multiply 90 by 0.3 (since three tenths equals 0.3). Therefore, 90 * 0.3 = 27. This calculation shows that the correct answer is 27. Choice A (18), choice B (45), and choice D (36) are incorrect as they do not represent three tenths of 90.

5. Express the ratio of 6:7 as a percentage.

• A. 67%
• B. 76%
• C. 86%
• D. 93%

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To express the ratio 6:7 as a percentage, we first need to find the total parts in the ratio, which is 6 + 7 = 13. To convert this ratio to a percentage, divide the part you want to find the percentage for by the total parts, then multiply by 100. In this case, to find the percentage for 6 in the ratio 6:7, the calculation would be (6/13) * 100 = 46.15%. Therefore, the correct answer is A, 67%. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect percentages as they do not result from the correct calculation for the given ratio.
