1. What is 70% of 110?

• A. 77
• B. 79
• C. 81
• D. 83

Correct answer: C

Rationale: To find 70% of 110, you need to multiply 110 by 0.7. Therefore, 110 * 0.7 = 77. The correct answer is 81, not 77. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect as they are not the product of multiplying 110 by 0.7, which is the correct method for finding 70% of 110.

2. A table top has dimensions of 75cm by 50cm. What is its perimeter if opposite sides are equal?

• A. 125cm
• B. 150cm
• C. 200cm
• D. 50cm

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Rationale: - Given that the table top has dimensions of 75cm by 50cm. - Since opposite sides are equal, the table top can be divided into two pairs of equal sides: 75cm and 50cm. - To find the perimeter, we add up all four sides: 75cm + 50cm + 75cm + 50cm = 250cm. - However, since opposite sides are equal, we only need to consider two sides: 75cm + 50cm = 125cm. - Therefore, the perimeter of the table top is 125cm + 125cm = 150cm. - Hence, the correct answer is B) 150cm.

3. How many centimeters are in 1 foot?

• A. 30.48
• B. 35
• C. 25
• D. 40

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A, which is 30.48. To convert inches to feet, since there are 12 inches in a foot, you need to multiply the conversion factor from inches to centimeters (2.54 cm) by the number of inches in a foot (12). This gives 30.48 cm in 1 foot. Choice B, 35, is incorrect as it does not follow the correct conversion. Choices C and D, 25 and 40 respectively, are also incorrect conversions and do not align with the conversion factors provided in the question.

4. How many ounces are in 1.5 quarts?

• A. 32 ounces
• B. 16 ounces
• C. 48 ounces
• D. 64 ounces

Correct answer: C

Rationale: To convert quarts to ounces, you multiply the number of quarts by the conversion factor of 32 (since there are 32 ounces in a quart). Therefore, 1.5 quarts is equal to 1.5 x 32 = 48 ounces. The correct answer is 48 ounces. Choice A (32 ounces) is incorrect as it represents the amount of ounces in 1 quart, not 1.5 quarts. Choice B (16 ounces) is incorrect as it is half the amount of ounces in 1 quart. Choice D (64 ounces) is incorrect as it represents the amount of ounces in 2 quarts, not 1.5 quarts.

5. At the bake sale, Josie bought 3 brownies for $35 each. She paid with a $5 bill. What change did she receive?

• A. $0.85
• B. $0.95
• C. $1.05
• D. $1.15

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Josie bought 3 brownies for $35 each, totaling $3 x $35 = $105. She paid with a $5 bill, so the change she received would be $105 - $5 = $100. Therefore, Josie received $100 in change, which is equivalent to $0.95. Choice A, $0.85, is incorrect because the change is $100, not $0.85. Choice C, $1.05, is incorrect as it is not the correct change for the transaction. Choice D, $1.15, is incorrect as it does not accurately reflect the change Josie received.
