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. In your class, there are 48 students; 32 students are female. Approximately what percentage are male?

• A. 33%
• B. 66%
• C. 25%
• D. 45%

Correct answer: A

Rationale: In a class of 48 students, with 32 being female, the number of male students is 48 - 32 = 16. To calculate the percentage of male students, divide the number of male students (16) by the total number of students (48) and then multiply by 100 to get the percentage: (16 / 48) * 100 = 33%. Therefore, approximately 33% of the students in the class are male. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not reflect the correct calculation based on the given information.

3. Convert 104°F to Celsius.

• A. 40°C
• B. 42°C
• C. 39°C
• D. 35°C

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To convert Fahrenheit to Celsius, you can use the formula: °C = (°F - 32) x 5/9. Plugging in the value, °C = (104 - 32) x 5/9 = 72 x 5/9 = 40°C. Therefore, 104°F is equal to 40°C. Choice A is correct. Choice B is incorrect as it is not the result of the conversion. Choice C is incorrect as it is not the result of the conversion. Choice D is incorrect as it is not the result of the conversion.

4. What is the result of subtracting 2 5/8 from 7/8?

• A. 1 3/4
• B. 2
• C. 1
• D. 2 & 1/2

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To subtract 2 5/8 from 7/8, first, convert 7/8 to an equivalent fraction with the same denominator as 2 5/8, which is 8. 7/8 equals 1 whole and 1/8. Subtracting 1 whole from 2 whole results in 1 whole, and subtracting 1/8 from 5/8 gives 4/8 or 1/2. Therefore, the answer is 1 1/2, which simplifies to 1 3/4. Choice B, 2, is incorrect as it doesn't represent the correct result of the subtraction. Choice C, 1, is incorrect as it doesn't account for the fractional part of the answer. Choice D, 2 & 1/2, is incorrect as it doesn't match the calculated result of 1 3/4.

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.
