1. Multiply: 2 × 5 =

• A. 0.013
• B. 0.13
• C. 1.3
• D. 10

Correct answer: D

Rationale: When you multiply 2 by 5, the result is 10, not 13. Therefore, the correct answer is 10, which is option D. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because they do not represent the correct product of multiplying 2 by 5.

2. Solve for x: 3x - 5 = 10

• A. x = 5
• B. x = 10
• C. x = 15
• D. x = 20

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To solve the equation 3x - 5 = 10, start by isolating x. Add 5 to both sides of the equation to get 3x = 15. Then, divide by 3 on both sides to find x = 5. Therefore, the correct answer is x = 5. Choice B, x = 10, is incorrect because adding 5 to 10 does not yield 10. Choice C, x = 15, is incorrect as adding 5 to 15 does not equal 10. Choice D, x = 20, is incorrect because adding 5 to 20 does not result in 10.

3. Edie has 132 tulip bulbs. She wants to plant all of the tulip bulbs in 12 rows. How many bulbs should she plant in each row?

• A. 11 bulbs
• B. 10 bulbs
• C. 12 bulbs
• D. 15 bulbs

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To plant 132 bulbs in 12 rows, Edie should plant 11 bulbs in each row. This is calculated by dividing the total number of bulbs by the number of rows: 132 bulbs ÷ 12 rows = 11 bulbs per row. Choice B, 10 bulbs, is incorrect because dividing 132 bulbs by 12 rows does not equal 10. Choice C, 12 bulbs, is incorrect because if Edie plants 12 bulbs in each row, the total number of bulbs planted would exceed 132. Choice D, 15 bulbs, is incorrect as dividing 132 bulbs by 12 rows does not result in 15 bulbs per row.

4. What is the result of multiplying 10 by 5?

• A. 65
• B. 50
• C. 45
• D. 55

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B. To find the result of multiplying 10 by 5, you perform the calculation: 10 × 5 = 50. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not represent the accurate product of 10 multiplied by 5.

5. Divide: 11 ÷ 5 =

• A. 1.424
• B. 1.622
• C. 2.2
• D. 2

Correct answer: C

Rationale: To divide 11 by 5, you need to perform the division operation. 11 divided by 5 equals 2.2. Therefore, the correct answer is C. Choice A (1.424) and Choice B (1.622) are incorrect as they do not result from the division of 11 by 5. Choice D (2) is close but not accurate, as the exact result of 11 divided by 5 is 2.2.
