1. Which of the following lists is in order from least to greatest? (1/7), 0.125, (6/9), 0.60
- A. (1/7), 0.125, (6/9), 0.60
- B. (1/7), 0.125, 0.60, (6/9)
- C. 0.125, (1/7), 0.60, 6/9
- D. 0.125, (1/7), (6/9), 0.60
Correct answer: C
Rationale: To determine the order from least to greatest, convert all fractions to decimals and compare them. Converting the fractions: (1/7) ≈ 0.14, (6/9) ≈ 0.67. The decimals in order from least to greatest are: 0.125 < 0.14 < 0.60 < 0.67. Therefore, the correct order is 0.125, (1/7), 0.60, 6/9, making choice C the correct answer. Choice A is incorrect as it lists (1/7) before 0.125. Choice B is incorrect as it places 0.60 before (6/9). Choice D is incorrect as it lists (6/9) before 0.60.
2. Four people split a bill. The first person pays for 1/3, the second person pays for 1/4, and the third person pays for 1/6. What fraction of the bill does the fourth person pay?
- A. 1/4
- B. 1/6
- C. 1/3
- D. 1/12
Correct answer: D
Rationale: To find out what fraction of the bill the fourth person pays, you first calculate the total fraction paid by the first three people: 1/3 + 1/4 + 1/6 = 4/12 + 3/12 + 2/12 = 9/12 = 3/4. This means that the first three people paid 3/4 of the bill. Therefore, the fourth person pays the remaining fraction: 1 - 3/4 = 1/4. So, the fourth person pays 1/4 of the bill. Choice A, 1/4, is incorrect because this is the total fraction paid by the first person. Choice B, 1/6, is incorrect as this is the fraction paid by the second person. Choice C, 1/3, is incorrect as this is the fraction paid by the third person.
3. A book has a width of 5 decimeters. What is the width of the book in centimeters?
- A. 0.25 centimeters
- B. 25 centimeters
- C. 250 centimeters
- D. 0.025 centimeters
Correct answer: B
Rationale: To convert decimeters to centimeters, you need to multiply by 10 since 1 decimeter is equal to 10 centimeters. Therefore, to find the width of the book in centimeters, multiply 5 decimeters by 10: 5 decimeters * 10 = 50 centimeters. This means the width of the book is 50 centimeters, making choice B, "25 centimeters," the correct answer. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not correctly convert decimeters to centimeters.
4. Anna is buying fruit at the farmers’ market. She selects 1.2 kilograms of apples, 800 grams of bananas, and 300 grams of strawberries. The farmer charges her a flat rate of $4 per kilogram. What is the total cost of her produce?
- A. $4.40
- B. $5.24
- C. $9.20
- D. $48.80
Correct answer: C
Rationale: To calculate the total cost, convert all weights to kilograms. 800 grams = 0.8 kilograms; 300 grams = 0.3 kilograms. Add up the weights: 1.2 kg + 0.8 kg + 0.3 kg = 2.3 kg. Multiply the total weight by the cost per kilogram: 2.3 kg × $4/kg = $9.20. Therefore, the total cost of her produce is $9.20. Choice A, $4.40, is incorrect as it does not account for the total weight of all the fruits. Choice B, $5.24, is incorrect as it does not accurately calculate the total cost based on the given weights and price per kilogram. Choice D, $48.80, is incorrect as it is significantly higher than the correct total cost and suggests an incorrect calculation method.
5. What is the result of multiplying (3/5) by (5/8)?
- A. 3/8
- B. 3/5
- C. 15/40
- D. 3/30
Correct answer: A
Rationale: To multiply fractions, multiply the numerators together and the denominators together. For (3/5) * (5/8), you get (3*5) / (5*8) = 15 / 40, which simplifies to 3/8. Therefore, the correct answer is A. Choice B (3/5) is incorrect as it is one of the original fractions being multiplied. Choice C (15/40) is the result of the multiplication but not simplified to its lowest terms. Choice D (3/30) is incorrect as the numerator is not the result of multiplying 3 and 5 together.
