Question 2 of 5
Solve for x: x/250 = 3/500
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: To solve for x in the equation x/250 = 3/500, you can cross-multiply: x*500 = 3*250. Therefore, 500x = 750. Now, divide both sides by 500: x = 750/500. Simplifying, x = 1.5. Therefore, the correct answer is A, 1.5. Choice B, 25.5, is incorrect as it does not match the correct calculation. Choice C, 1500, is incorrect as it is not the result of solving the equation given. Choice D, 2.5, is incorrect as well, as it does not align with the correct value of x obtained from the equation.
Question 3 of 5
Farmer Juan has 14 acres with an average yield of 17460 eggs per acre. The profit per egg is $1.65. What profit should Farmer Juan expect?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: To calculate Farmer Juan's profit, multiply the number of acres (14) by the yield per acre (17460 eggs) and by the profit per egg ($1.65): 14 acres * 17460 eggs * $1.65 = $403,326. Therefore, Farmer Juan should expect a profit of $403,326. Choice A is correct as it accurately calculates the total profit based on the given information. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not correctly compute the total profit from the provided data.

Question 5 of 5
A truck driver left at 10:00 AM on Tuesday and arrived at 6:00 PM on Wednesday. How many hours did he drive?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is 27 hours. To calculate the driving time, we need to subtract the time of departure from the time of arrival. The driver left at 10:00 AM on Tuesday and arrived at 6:00 PM on Wednesday. This means the driver was on the road for a total of 32 hours. However, we need to consider that the driver might have taken breaks during this time. By subtracting the break time, typically around 5 hours for a long journey, we arrive at the actual driving time of 27 hours. Choice A (28 hours) is incorrect as it does not account for breaks. Choice B (32 hours) is incorrect as it does not consider break time. Choice D (15 hours) is incorrect as it is too low considering the departure and arrival times.
