1. What is the result of 0.003 x 4.23?

• A. 0.01269
• B. 0.01029
• C. 0.01419
• D. 0.01329

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To find the product of 0.003 and 4.23, multiply the two numbers: 0.003 x 4.23 = 0.01269. Therefore, the correct answer is A, 0.01269. Choice B, 0.01029, is incorrect as it is the result of a different calculation. Choice C, 0.01419, is incorrect because it is not the product of 0.003 and 4.23. Choice D, 0.01329, is also incorrect as it does not represent the correct multiplication result.

2. How many liters are in 120 milliliters?

• A. 1.2 liters
• B. 12 liters
• C. 1,200 liters
• D. 0.12 liters

Correct answer: D

Rationale: To convert milliliters to liters, divide the milliliters by 1000 since there are 1000 milliliters in a liter. In this case, 120 milliliters divided by 1000 equals 0.12 liters. Therefore, the correct answer is 0.12 liters. Choice A (1.2 liters) is incorrect as it incorrectly moved the decimal point. Choice B (12 liters) is incorrect as it incorrectly multiplied by 10 instead of dividing by 1000. Choice C (1,200 liters) is incorrect as it added an extra zero, resulting in a much larger value.

3. If the regular price of a bar is $2.50, how much do you save per bar if you purchase a value pack of 8 bars for $20?

• A. 15¢
• B. 40¢
• C. 75¢
• D. $1.20

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To determine how much you save per bar when buying a value pack of 8 bars for $20, calculate the individual price per bar by dividing the total price by the number of bars: $20 ÷ 8 = $2.50 per bar. When the pack price is lower than the individual price, you save money. The saving per bar is found by subtracting the pack price from the individual price: $2.50 (individual price) - $2.50 (pack price) = $0.40. Therefore, you save 40 cents per bar by purchasing the value pack. Choice A, 15¢, is incorrect because the actual saving is $0.40. Choice C, 75¢, is incorrect as it doesn't match the calculated saving. Choice D, $1.20, is incorrect as it is not the actual amount saved per bar.

4. If a train travels at 80 kilometers per hour, how many kilometers will it travel in 3 hours?

• A. 240 kilometers
• B. 160 kilometers
• C. 240 kilometers
• D. 210 kilometers

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To find the total distance traveled, you need to multiply the speed of the train by the time it travels. So, 80 km/h * 3 hours = 240 kilometers. Therefore, the correct answer is 240 kilometers. Choice B (160 kilometers) is incorrect because it is the result of multiplying the speed by 2 hours instead of 3. Choice C (240 kilometers) is the same as the correct answer, making it redundant. Choice D (210 kilometers) is incorrect as it is the result of multiplying the speed by 2.5 hours instead of 3.

5. What is the result of the expression 4/5 + 6/7?

• A. 1 23/35
• B. 2 5/7
• C. 1 1/7
• D. 1 3/4

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To add fractions with different denominators, you first need to find a common denominator. In this case, the common denominator for 5 and 7 is 35. Then, convert each fraction to have a denominator of 35. 4/5 becomes 28/35, and 6/7 becomes 30/35. Adding these fractions together gives 58/35, which simplifies to 1 23/35. Therefore, the correct answer is A, 1 23/35. Choice B, 2 5/7, is incorrect because it does not match the correct result. Choice C, 1 1/7, is incorrect as it is not the simplified form of the sum of the fractions. Choice D, 1 3/4, is incorrect as it is a different result and not the sum of 4/5 and 6/7.
