1. What is the product of 2/3 and 3/4?

• A. 1
• B. 2
• C. 3
• D. 4

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To multiply fractions, you multiply the numerators to get the new numerator and multiply the denominators to get the new denominator. Therefore, multiplying 2/3 by 3/4 results in (2*3) / (3*4) = 6/12. Simplifying 6/12 by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 6 gives 1. Hence, the correct answer is 1. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not represent the correct product of multiplying 2/3 by 3/4.

2. If a train travels 60 miles per hour for 2 hours, how far does the train travel?

• A. 60 miles
• B. 100 miles
• C. 120 miles
• D. 200 miles

Correct answer: C

Rationale: To find the distance traveled by the train, we use the formula Distance = Speed x Time. Given that the train travels at 60 miles per hour for 2 hours, the calculation would be 60 miles/hour x 2 hours = 120 miles. Therefore, the correct answer is 120 miles. Choice A (60 miles) is incorrect because it only represents the speed of the train, not the total distance traveled. Choice B (100 miles) is incorrect as it does not account for the full 2 hours of travel. Choice D (200 miles) is incorrect as it overestimates the distance by multiplying the speed by the time incorrectly.

3. What is 15% of 200?

• A. 30
• B. 20
• C. 25
• D. 40

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To find 15% of 200, you multiply 0.15 by 200, which equals 30. Therefore, the correct answer is A. Choice B (20) is incorrect because it represents 10% of 200. Choice C (25) is incorrect as it does not accurately represent 15% of 200. Choice D (40) is incorrect as it represents 20% of 200.

4. Solve this equation: 2x+8=0

• A. -4
• B. 3
• C. 5
• D. 0

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To solve 2 𝑥 + 8 = 0 2x+8=0: Subtract 8 from both sides: 2 𝑥 = − 8 2x=−8 Divide both sides by 2: 𝑥 = − 8 2 = − 4 x= 2 −8 ​ =−4 Therefore, the solution is 𝑥 = − 4 x=−4.

5. How many milliliters are there in 3.2 liters?

• A. 0.32
• B. 32
• C. 3200
• D. 320

Correct answer: C

Rationale: To convert liters to milliliters, you need to know that 1 liter is equal to 1000 milliliters. Therefore, 3.2 liters is equivalent to 3.2 x 1000 = 3200 milliliters. Choice A (0.32) is incorrect as it incorrectly moves the decimal point. Choice B (32) is incorrect as it doesn't consider the conversion factor between liters and milliliters. Choice D (320) is incorrect as it is a partial conversion error, missing a zero at the end.
