1. What is the result of multiplying 10 by 5?

A. 65
B. 50
C. 45
D. 55

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B. To find the result of multiplying 10 by 5, you perform the calculation: 10 Ã— 5 = 50. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not represent the accurate product of 10 multiplied by 5.

2. Add: 1.332 + 0.067

A. 1.399
B. 1.4
C. 1.402
D. 1.5

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To find the sum of 1.332 and 0.067, add the two numbers correctly: 1.332 + 0.067 = 1.399. Therefore, the correct answer is A. Choice B (1.4) is incorrect because it rounds down the sum, not considering the precise value. Choice C (1.402) is incorrect as it results from adding 1.332 and 0.070 instead of 0.067. Choice D (1.5) is not the correct sum of the given numbers.

3. Stanton runs 2 miles twice a week and 3 miles once a week. If he runs every week, how many miles does he run in a year?

A. 185
B. 260
C. 330
D. 364

Correct answer: D

Rationale: To calculate how many miles Stanton runs in a year, we first find out how many miles he runs in a week. Running 2 miles twice a week is 2 x 2 = 4 miles, and running 3 miles once a week is an additional 3 miles. Therefore, in a week, Stanton runs a total of 4 + 3 = 7 miles. To find out how many miles he runs in a year, we multiply the weekly total by the number of weeks in a year (52): 7 miles/week x 52 weeks = 364 miles. Therefore, Stanton runs 364 miles in a year. Choice A (185) is incorrect as it does not account for the total weekly distance correctly. Choice B (260) is incorrect as it miscalculates the total miles run in a year. Choice C (330) is incorrect as it does not calculate the correct total distance covered by Stanton in a year.

4. How many ounces are in 3/4 pints?

A. 12 ounces
B. 16 ounces
C. 14 ounces
D. 10 ounces

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To find the number of ounces in 3/4 pints, we need to know that 1 pint is equal to 16 ounces. Therefore, 3/4 of a pint would be 3/4 * 16 = 12 ounces. The correct answer is 12 ounces because 3/4 pints is equivalent to 12 ounces. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not accurately calculate the conversion from pints to ounces.
