Question 1 of 5
A woman wants to stack two bookcases, one 32.75 inches tall and another 17.25 inches tall. How tall will they be when stacked together?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale:
To find the total height of the stacked bookcases, you need to add the heights of the two bookcases: 32.75 inches + 17.25 inches = 50 inches.
Therefore, the correct answer is 50 inches.
Choice A (49.5 inches) is incorrect as it does not consider rounding off the total height.
Choices C (48 inches) and D (51 inches) are incorrect as they do not accurately calculate the sum of the heights of the two bookcases.
Question 2 of 5
How many quarts are in a gallon?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D, which is 4 quarts in a gallon. In the US customary system, there are 4 quarts in a gallon.
Choice A is incorrect as it represents the equivalent of a quart, not a gallon.
Choice B and C are incorrect as they are smaller quantities than a gallon and do not match the conversion of quarts to a gallon.
Question 3 of 5
"is" in math means what?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: In mathematics, "is" signifies equality, meaning that the values or expressions on both sides of the equation are the same. For example, in the equation 2+2=4, the phrase "2 + 2 is 4" indicates that the sum of 2 and 2 equals 4.
"Multiply" refers to the operation of combining two numbers to obtain a product. For instance, in the expression 34, we multiply 3 by 4 to get 12.
"Subtract" means to take one number away from another, resulting in a difference. For example, in 5−2, we subtract 2 from 5 to get 3.
"Add" refers to the operation of combining two numbers to get a sum. For example, in 2+3, we add 2 and 3 to get 5.
Question 4 of 5
A patient requires a 30% decrease in the dosage of their medication. Their current dosage is 340 mg. What will their dosage be after the decrease?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale:
To calculate a 30% decrease in 340 mg, you multiply 340 by 0.3, which equals 102 mg. Subtracting this from the current dosage gives 340 - 102 = 238 mg.
Therefore, the correct answer is 238 mg.
Choice A (70 mg) is incorrect because it represents a 70% decrease, not 30%.
Choice C (270 mg) is incorrect as it does not reflect the correct calculation for a 30% decrease.
Choice D (340 mg) is the initial dosage and not the reduced dosage after a 30% decrease.
Question 5 of 5
Four more than a number is 2 less than 5\6 of another number. Which equation represents this?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The equation that represents the relationship is x + 4 = 5\6y - 2.
