1. What is the temperature in Celsius when it is 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit?

• A. 35 Celsius
• B. 37 Celsius
• C. 38 Celsius
• D. 36.5 Celsius

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To convert 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit to Celsius, you can use the formula (98.6 - 32) × 5/9. By solving this equation, the temperature is calculated to be 37°C. Therefore, the correct answer is B, 37 Celsius. Choice A, 35 Celsius, is incorrect because it is not the outcome of the conversion formula. Choice C, 38 Celsius, is incorrect as well, as it does not match the correct conversion result. Choice D, 36.5 Celsius, is also incorrect as it does not correspond to the accurate conversion from 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit.

2. A syringe holds 3ml of liquid. How many syringes are needed to measure 15ml of liquid?

• A. 3
• B. 5
• C. 7
• D. 9

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Since each syringe holds 3ml of liquid, to measure 15ml of liquid, you would need to divide 15ml by 3ml/syringe. This calculation gives you 5 syringes needed to measure 15ml of liquid. Choice A (3 syringes) is incorrect because 3 syringes would only hold 9ml of liquid, not 15ml. Choice C (7 syringes) and Choice D (9 syringes) are incorrect as they would result in an excess amount of liquid, which is not needed.

3. If Kevin can wash 30 cars in 15 minutes, how many minutes will it take him to wash 100 cars?

• A. 50 minutes
• B. 55 minutes
• C. 30 minutes
• D. 45 minutes

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To find out how many minutes Kevin will take to wash 100 cars, set up a proportion: 30 cars is to 15 minutes as 100 cars is to x minutes. Cross multiplying gives 30x = 1500. Solving for x, x = 1500 / 30 = 50. Therefore, it will take Kevin 50 minutes to wash 100 cars. Choice A is correct. Choice B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not correctly calculate the time needed based on the given information.

4. If a marathon runner burns 2276 calories in 21.4 miles, what is their rate of calories burned per mile?

• A. 107.5
• B. 106.4
• C. 105.6
• D. 109.3

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To find the rate of calories burned per mile, divide the total calories burned by the total miles run: 2276 ÷ 21.4 ≈ 106.4 calories per mile. This calculation gives the average number of calories burned for each mile of the marathon. Choice A, 107.5, is incorrect as it does not match the precise calculation result. Choices C and D are also incorrect as they are not the accurate rate of calories burned per mile based on the given data.

5. How many grams of carbohydrates are in a product if it contains 4 servings, and each serving has 8 grams of carbohydrates?

• A. 32 grams
• B. 28 grams
• C. 24 grams
• D. 20 grams

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To calculate the total grams of carbohydrates in the product, you multiply the number of servings by the grams of carbohydrates per serving. Given that each serving has 8 grams of carbohydrates and there are 4 servings, the total would be 4 servings * 8 grams = 32 grams. Therefore, the correct answer is A: 32 grams. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not correctly calculate the total grams of carbohydrates based on the information provided.
