Question 1 of 5
What is 70% of 65?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale:
To find 70% of 65, you multiply 0.7 by 65. Mathematically, 0.7 * 65 = 45.5.
Therefore, the correct answer is 45.5.
Choice A (40.5) is incorrect because it is not the result of multiplying 0.7 by 65.
Choice C (50) is incorrect as it is higher than the correct answer.
Choice D (55) is also higher than the correct result and is therefore incorrect.
Question 2 of 5
What is the result of adding 9.43 and 11.3?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: 20.73.
To calculate the sum of 9.43 and 11.3, you simply add the two numbers together.
Therefore, 9.43 + 11.3 equals 20.73.
Choice B (21.3) is incorrect because it represents the sum of rounding the numbers up.
Choice C (22) and choice D (19.5) are also incorrect as they do not accurately reflect the sum of the provided numbers.
Question 3 of 5
How many millimeters are in 5 meters?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale:
To convert meters to millimeters, you multiply by 1000 since there are 1000 millimeters in 1 meter.
Therefore, 5 meters multiplied by 1000 equals 5000 millimeters.
Choice A is correct as it represents the accurate conversion from meters to millimeters.
Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not provide the correct conversion factor from meters to millimeters.
Question 4 of 5
Express the number 1906 in Roman numerals.
Correct Answer: B
Rationale:
To convert 1906 to Roman numerals, break it down into components: 1000 (M), 900 (CM), 6 (VI), resulting in MCMVI.
Therefore, the correct Roman numeral representation for 1906 is MCMVI.
Choice A (MCMIV) is incorrect as it represents 1904.
Choice C (MDCCCCVI) is incorrect because it uses the subtractive notation incorrectly, and it's considered nonstandard.
Choice D (MCMVII) is incorrect as it represents 1907, not 1906.

Choice A (30 cm) is incorrect as it is a rounded-down value and not precise.
Choice B (31.5 cm) is incorrect as it is not the standard conversion for feet to centimeters.
Choice D (35 cm) is incorrect as it is not the accurate conversion for a foot to centimeters.
