1. How many ounces are in 2.5 gallons?

• A. 240 ounces
• B. 160 ounces
• C. 320 ounces
• D. 240 ounces

Correct answer: C

Rationale: To convert gallons to ounces, we need to know that 1 gallon is equal to 128 ounces. Therefore, 2.5 gallons would be 2.5 x 128 = 320 ounces. This makes choice C, '320 ounces,' the correct answer. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because they do not correctly calculate the conversion from gallons to ounces.

2. If a person consumes 500 calories per meal, how many calories will they consume in 3 meals?

• A. 1000 calories
• B. 1500 calories
• C. 2000 calories
• D. 500 calories

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To find the total calories consumed in 3 meals, you multiply the number of meals by the calories per meal: 3 meals x 500 calories/meal = 1500 calories. Therefore, the correct answer is 1500 calories. Choice A (1000 calories) is incorrect because it miscalculates the total calories. Choice C (2000 calories) is incorrect as it overestimates the total calories. Choice D (500 calories) is incorrect as it represents the calories consumed in a single meal, not in 3 meals.

3. 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.

4. If 3 books cost $4, how much will 6 books cost?

• A. $8
• B. $12
• C. $6
• D. $10

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To find the cost of 1 book, divide the total cost by the number of books: $4 / 3 = $1.33 per book. To determine the cost of 6 books, multiply the cost per book by 6: $1.33 * 6 = $8. Therefore, purchasing 6 books will cost $8. Choice B, $12, is incorrect as it incorrectly doubles the cost of 3 books. Choice C, $6, is incorrect as it is half the cost of 3 books. Choice D, $10, is incorrect as it does not accurately calculate the cost of 6 books based on the given information.

5. A healthcare professional works in a military hospital from 1300 to 2000. What time of day does this healthcare professional work?

• A. Early morning to early afternoon
• B. Lunchtime to midnight
• C. Early afternoon to bedtime
• D. Midnight to sunrise

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Early afternoon to bedtime. The healthcare professional's work hours from 1300 to 2000 correspond to 1 PM to 8 PM, indicating work during the afternoon and early evening. Choice A (Early morning to early afternoon) is incorrect because the professional works in the afternoon and early evening, not the morning. Choice B (Lunchtime to midnight) is incorrect as the professional finishes work before midnight, not until midnight. Choice D (Midnight to sunrise) is incorrect as the professional's work hours are during the daytime and evening, not overnight.
