1. Which of the following is equivalent to 0.0009?
- A. 0.09%
- B. 9%
- C. 0.01%
- D. 0.90%
Correct answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: 0.09%. To convert 0.0009 to a percentage, move the decimal point four places to the right and add a percentage sign. Therefore, 0.0009 is equal to 0.09%. Choice B (9%) is incorrect as it represents 0.09 without the decimal point adjustment. Choice C (0.01%) is incorrect as it represents 0.0009 with one less zero. Choice D (0.90%) is incorrect as it represents 0.9 not 0.0009.
2. How many ounces are in 2.5 gallons?
- A. 240 ounces
- B. 160 ounces
- C. 320 ounces
- D. 240 ounces
Correct answer: C
Rationale: To convert gallons to ounces, we need to know that 1 gallon is equal to 128 ounces. Therefore, 2.5 gallons would be 2.5 x 128 = 320 ounces. This makes choice C, '320 ounces,' the correct answer. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because they do not correctly calculate the conversion from gallons to ounces.
3. What time is 6:30 A.M. in military time?
- A. 0630
- B. 6030
- C. 1503
- D. 1530
Correct answer: A
Rationale: Military time uses a 24-hour clock format where the hours range from 00 to 23. In this format, 6:30 A.M. is expressed as 0630. Choice B (6030) and Choice C (1503) are incorrect as they do not follow the 24-hour clock format. Choice D (1530) represents 3:30 P.M., not 6:30 A.M.
4. Convert 0.25 to a fraction.
- A. 1/4
- B. 1/3
- C. 1/2
- D. 3/4
Correct answer: A
Rationale: To convert a decimal to a fraction, place the decimal value over the place value of the last digit. In this case, 0.25 can be written as 25/100. Simplifying this fraction by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 25 gives 1/4. Therefore, 0.25 expressed as a fraction is 1/4. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they represent different fractional values that do not correspond to 0.25.
5. Convert 9/10 to a decimal.
- A. 0.7
- B. 0.8
- C. 0.9
- D. 1
Correct answer: C
Rationale: To convert 9/10 to a decimal, divide 9 by 10: 9 รท 10 = 0.9. The correct answer is 0.9. Choice A (0.7) is incorrect as 7/10 is equal to 0.7. Choice B (0.8) is incorrect as 8/10 is equal to 0.8. Choice D (1) is incorrect as 10/10 would be equal to 1.
