1. The recipe called for 3 1/2 pints of sour cream. How many cups of sour cream would that be equivalent to?
- A. 5 cups
- B. 7 cups
- C. 6 cups
- D. 4 cups
Correct answer: B
Rationale: To convert 3 1/2 pints of sour cream to cups, knowing that 1 pint equals 2 cups, we multiply 3.5 by 2, resulting in 7 cups. Therefore, the equivalent amount of sour cream in cups is 7 cups. Choice A is incorrect as it does not consider the correct conversion factor. Choice C is incorrect as it does not account for the accurate conversion from pints to cups. Choice D is incorrect as it underestimates the conversion by not multiplying the pints by the correct factor.
2. 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.
3. Express 0.75 as a fraction.
- A. 4/5
- B. 3/4
- C. 1/2
- D. 1/4
Correct answer: B
Rationale: To express 0.75 as a fraction, we write it as 75/100. Simplifying this fraction by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 25 gives us 3/4. Therefore, 0.75 is equivalent to 3/4. Choice A (4/5), Choice C (1/2), and Choice D (1/4) are incorrect fractions and do not represent 0.75.
4. What is the freezing point of water in degrees Celsius?
- A. 0°C
- B. 100°C
- C. 50°C
- D. 25°C
Correct answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is 0°C. The freezing point of water is 0°C under standard conditions. Water freezes at 0°C and boils at 100°C. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not represent the freezing point of water. 100°C is the boiling point of water, 50°C and 25°C are not related to the freezing point of water.
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.
