1. 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.

2. What is the average of the numbers 14, 73, and 7?

• A. 28.57
• B. 30.57
• C. 29.56
• D. 31.33

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D. Adding 14 + 73 + 7 gives a total of 94. To find the average, we divide the sum by the number of values (3), which equals 31.33. Rounding this average to two decimal places gives us 31.33, which corresponds to option D. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect as they do not correctly calculate the average of the given numbers. Choice A is close to the sum of the numbers, not the average. Choices B and C are also not correct averages calculated from the provided numbers.

3. If he left a tip of $36 on a total bill of $200, what percentage of the total bill did he leave as a tip?

• A. 16%
• B. 18%
• C. 20%
• D. 22%

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To determine the tip percentage left, divide the tip amount ($36) by the total bill amount ($200), then multiply the result by 100 to express it as a percentage: (36/200) x 100 = 18%. Therefore, he left an 18% tip on the total bill amount. Choice A (16%) is incorrect because the correct calculation results in 18%. Choice C (20%) and Choice D (22%) are incorrect as they do not match the calculated percentage based on the provided numbers.

4. How many grams are in 5 kilograms?

• A. 50,000 grams
• B. 500 grams
• C. 5,000 grams
• D. 50,000 grams

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: 5,000 grams. There are 1,000 grams in a kilogram. Therefore, to convert kilograms to grams, you need to multiply the number of kilograms by 1,000. In this case, 5 kilograms is equal to 5 × 1,000 = 5,000 grams. Choices A and D are incorrect as they incorrectly multiply by 10,000 instead of 1,000. Choice B is incorrect as it divides instead of multiplies, leading to an incorrect conversion.

5. Divide: 727 ÷ 6 =

• A. 120 r1
• B. 120 r3
• C. 121 r1
• D. 127 r3

Correct answer: C

Rationale: When dividing 727 by 6, the quotient is 121 with a remainder of 1. The correct answer is, therefore, 121 r1. Choice A (120 r1) is incorrect as the quotient is 121, not 120. Choice B (120 r3) is also incorrect as the remainder should be 1, not 3. Choice D (127 r3) is incorrect as both the quotient and remainder are different from the correct values obtained by dividing 727 by 6.
