1. How many ounces are in 4 quarts?

• A. 64 ounces
• B. 128 ounces
• C. 32 ounces
• D. 16 ounces

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 128 ounces. There are 32 ounces in a quart, so when you have 4 quarts, you multiply 4 by 32 to get the total number of ounces, which equals 128. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not reflect the correct conversion from quarts to ounces.

2. What is 70% of 200?

• A. 100
• B. 100
• C. 200
• D. 140

Correct answer: D

Rationale: To find 70% of a number, you multiply the number by 0.70. Therefore, 70% of 200 is calculated as 0.7 × 200 = 140. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect as they do not represent the correct calculation for finding 70% of 200.

3. What is 7 1/8 + 2 4/12 equal to?

• A. 9 11/24
• B. 10 1/3
• C. 8 3/8
• D. 7 7/24

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To add mixed numbers, first convert the fractions to a common denominator. The least common denominator between 8 and 12 is 24. Converting 7 1/8 to 7 3/24 (since 1/8 = 3/24) and 2 4/12 to 2 8/24 (since 4/12 = 8/24), we can add the whole numbers separately to get 9. Then, adding the fractions 3/24 and 8/24 gives 11/24. Therefore, 7 1/8 + 2 4/12 equals 9 11/24. Choice A is correct. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not reflect the correct addition of mixed numbers with the appropriate conversion of fractions.

4. Which of the following is equivalent to 0.0009?

• A. 0.09%
• B. 9%
• C. 0.01%
• D. 0.90%

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: 0.09%. To convert 0.0009 to a percentage, move the decimal point four places to the right and add a percentage sign. Therefore, 0.0009 is equal to 0.09%. Choice B (9%) is incorrect as it represents 0.09 without the decimal point adjustment. Choice C (0.01%) is incorrect as it represents 0.0009 with one less zero. Choice D (0.90%) is incorrect as it represents 0.9 not 0.0009.

5. How many centimeters are in 1 foot?

• A. 30.48
• B. 35
• C. 25
• D. 40

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A, which is 30.48. To convert inches to feet, since there are 12 inches in a foot, you need to multiply the conversion factor from inches to centimeters (2.54 cm) by the number of inches in a foot (12). This gives 30.48 cm in 1 foot. Choice B, 35, is incorrect as it does not follow the correct conversion. Choices C and D, 25 and 40 respectively, are also incorrect conversions and do not align with the conversion factors provided in the question.
