1. How many ounces are in 4.5 quarts?

• A. 120 ounces
• B. 120 ounces
• C. 144 ounces
• D. 128 ounces

Correct answer: C

Rationale: There are 32 ounces in a quart, so to find out how many ounces are in 4.5 quarts, you need to multiply 4.5 by 32. 4.5 quarts * 32 ounces/quart = 144 ounces. Therefore, the correct answer is 144 ounces. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because they do not correctly calculate the conversion from quarts to ounces.

2. How many kilometers is equivalent to 200 meters?

• A. 50 kilometers
• B. 20 kilometers
• C. 12 kilometers
• D. 0.2 kilometers

Correct answer: D

Rationale: To convert meters to kilometers, divide the number of meters by 1000, as 1 kilometer is equal to 1000 meters. Therefore, 200 meters is equivalent to 200 / 1000 = 0.2 kilometers. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because they do not correctly convert meters to kilometers. A provides an answer that would be correct if converting from kilometers to meters. B and C are much larger distances than what 200 meters represent.

3. Convert 26°C to Fahrenheit.

• A. 78°F
• B. 72°F
• C. 80°F
• D. 85°F

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To convert Celsius to Fahrenheit, the formula F = (9/5)C + 32 is used. Substituting 26°C into the formula: F = (9/5)(26) + 32 = 78.8°F, which rounds to 78°F. Therefore, the correct answer is 78°F. Choice B (72°F), Choice C (80°F), and Choice D (85°F) are incorrect as they do not result from the correct conversion calculation.

4. A train takes 1.5 hours at a constant speed of 65 mph to arrive at the destination. How many miles did the train travel?

• A. 97.5 miles
• B. 100 miles
• C. 98 miles
• D. 95 miles

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To calculate the distance traveled, multiply the speed by the time taken: 65 mph × 1.5 hours = 97.5 miles. Therefore, the correct answer is A. Choice B (100 miles) is incorrect as it results from rounding up, which is not necessary. Choice C (98 miles) and Choice D (95 miles) are incorrect as they do not reflect the correct calculation based on the given speed and time.

5. Divide: 727 ÷ 6 =

• A. 120 r1
• B. 120 r3
• C. 121 r1
• D. 127 r3

Correct answer: C

Rationale: When dividing 727 by 6, the quotient is 121 with a remainder of 1. The correct answer is, therefore, 121 r1. Choice A (120 r1) is incorrect as the quotient is 121, not 120. Choice B (120 r3) is also incorrect as the remainder should be 1, not 3. Choice D (127 r3) is incorrect as both the quotient and remainder are different from the correct values obtained by dividing 727 by 6.
