1. How many ounces are in 8 & 1/4 pints?

Correct answer: C

Rationale: To convert 8 1/4 pints to ounces, first convert the mixed number to an improper fraction: 8 1/4 = 33/4. There are 16 ounces in 1 pint. Now, multiply 33/4 by 16 ounces per pint: 33/4 x 16 = 132 ounces. Therefore, the correct answer is 132 oz. Choice A (136 oz) is incorrect because it does not result from the correct conversion. Choice B (128 oz) is incorrect as it is a miscalculation. Choice D (130 oz) is incorrect as well, not derived from the accurate conversion process.

2. Later he spends $20 on bus tokens. How much is left from his original $100?

Correct answer: D

Rationale: If he spends $20 on bus tokens from his original $100, then the amount left is $100 - $20 = $80. The remaining 90% of $80 is calculated as $80 + 0.90 * $80 = $80 + $72 = $89.30. Therefore, the correct answer is $89.30. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect as they do not represent the correct calculation of the remaining amount after spending $20.

3. 4 7/8 divided by 1 1/6 equals what?

Correct answer: D

Rationale: To divide 4,7/8 by 1,1/6: Convert to improper fractions: 4,7/8 = 39/8 1,1/6 = 7/6 Divide by multiplying by the reciprocal: 39/8 × 6/7 = 234/56 Simplify: 234/56 = 117/28 or 4,5/28

4. If Bill has 5.5 vacation days left for the rest of the year and 3.25 sick days left, how many days will he have off work if he uses all of this time?

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To calculate the total days off, you need to sum up the remaining vacation days and sick days. 5.5 vacation days + 3.25 sick days = 8.75 days off. Therefore, the correct answer is A. Choice B (7.75) is incorrect because it doesn't account for all available days off. Choice C (9) is incorrect as it overestimates the total days off. Choice D (6.75) is incorrect as it underestimates the total days off.

5. How many ounces are there in 4 cups?

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To find out how many ounces are in 4 cups, you need to multiply 8 ounces (the number of ounces in 1 cup) by 4 cups. This calculation results in 32 ounces. However, the question asks for the number of ounces in 4 cups, not the total ounces in 4 cups. Therefore, there are 16 ounces in 4 cups. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not represent the correct conversion of ounces in 4 cups.
