1. How many ounces are in 3 quarts?

• A. 64 ounces
• B. 32 ounces
• C. 48 ounces
• D. 96 ounces

Correct answer: D

Rationale: There are 32 ounces in a quart. Therefore, 3 quarts would be equal to 3 quarts x 32 ounces = 96 ounces. The correct answer is D. Choice A, 64 ounces, is incorrect as it miscalculates the conversion from quarts to ounces. Choice B, 32 ounces, is the conversion for 1 quart, not 3 quarts. Choice C, 48 ounces, is also an incorrect calculation, not considering the correct conversion rate.

2. Which of the following numbers is a perfect square?

• A. 10
• B. 12
• C. 15
• D. 16

Correct answer: D

Rationale: A perfect square is a number obtained by squaring an integer. In this case, 16 is a perfect square because it is the result of squaring 4 (4 x 4 = 16). The other answer choices, 10, 12, and 15, are not the product of squaring any whole number, making them incorrect. Therefore, the correct answer is 16, as it is a perfect square.

3. Convert this military time to regular time: 2120 hours.

• A. 9:20 A.M.
• B. 9:20 P.M.
• C. 2:12 A.M.
• D. 2:12 P.M.

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To convert military time to regular time, subtract 12 from the hours if the time is in the afternoon or evening. In this case, 21 - 12 = 9, so 2120 hours is equivalent to 9:20 P.M. Therefore, the correct answer is option B, 9:20 P.M. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not correctly adjust the military time to regular time format. Choice A shows 9:20 A.M., which is incorrect as the time is in the evening. Choices C and D show times that are not derived from the given military time, making them incorrect as well.

4. 7 is divisible by which of the following numbers?

• A. 2 only
• B. 3 only
• C. 1 and 7 only
• D. 2, 3, and 7

Correct answer: D

Rationale: Rationale: 1. 7 is divisible by 1 because every number is divisible by 1. 2. 7 is divisible by 7 because any number is divisible by itself. 3. 7 is not divisible by 2 because 7 is an odd number and not divisible by 2. 4. 7 is not divisible by 3 because the sum of the digits of 7 (7) is not divisible by 3. Therefore, 7 is divisible by 1, 7, and itself (7), making the correct answer D) 2, 3, and 7.

5. Subtract 2 5\8 - 7\8 and reduce.

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

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Subtract the fractions first: 2 5\8 - 7\8 = 1 & 5\8.
