1. How many ounces are in 3/4 pints?

• A. 12 ounces
• B. 16 ounces
• C. 14 ounces
• D. 10 ounces

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To find the number of ounces in 3/4 pints, we need to know that 1 pint is equal to 16 ounces. Therefore, 3/4 of a pint would be 3/4 * 16 = 12 ounces. The correct answer is 12 ounces because 3/4 pints is equivalent to 12 ounces. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not accurately calculate the conversion from pints to ounces.

2. What number is 98 175% of?

• A. 48
• B. 52
• C. 54
• D. 56

Correct answer: D

Rationale: To find the number that 98 is 175% of, we can set up the equation: x = 1.75 * x. By solving this equation, we get x = 56. Therefore, 98 is 175% of 56. Choice D, 56, is the correct answer as it represents the number that satisfies the given condition. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect as they do not result in 98 when multiplied by 1.75.

3. Sarah had 1 quart of milk. How many ounces of milk is that?

• A. 16 ounces
• B. 24 ounces
• C. 32 ounces
• D. 48 ounces

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is 32 ounces. One quart is equivalent to 32 ounces. To convert quarts to ounces, you need to know that 1 quart equals 32 ounces. Therefore, 1 quart of milk is equal to 32 ounces. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect as they do not accurately convert 1 quart to ounces.

4. Stanton runs 2 miles twice a week and 3 miles once a week. If he runs every week, how many miles does he run in a year?

• A. 185
• B. 260
• C. 330
• D. 364

Correct answer: D

Rationale: To calculate how many miles Stanton runs in a year, we first find out how many miles he runs in a week. Running 2 miles twice a week is 2 x 2 = 4 miles, and running 3 miles once a week is an additional 3 miles. Therefore, in a week, Stanton runs a total of 4 + 3 = 7 miles. To find out how many miles he runs in a year, we multiply the weekly total by the number of weeks in a year (52): 7 miles/week x 52 weeks = 364 miles. Therefore, Stanton runs 364 miles in a year. Choice A (185) is incorrect as it does not account for the total weekly distance correctly. Choice B (260) is incorrect as it miscalculates the total miles run in a year. Choice C (330) is incorrect as it does not calculate the correct total distance covered by Stanton in a year.

5. The formula for calculating ideal body weight (IBW) for men is IBW (kg) = 50 + 2.3 * (height in cm - 150). If a man is 180cm tall, what is his ideal body weight?

• A. 68kg
• B. 71kg
• C. 74kg
• D. 77kg

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Rationale: 1. Substitute the given height into the formula for calculating ideal body weight (IBW) for men: IBW (kg) = 50 + 2.3 * (180 - 150) IBW (kg) = 50 + 2.3 * 30 IBW (kg) = 50 + 69 IBW (kg) = 119 2. Therefore, the ideal body weight for a man who is 180cm tall is 119kg. 3. Among the given options, the closest value to 119kg is 71kg (option B). 4. Hence, the correct answer is B) 71kg.
