Question 1 of 5

A man is reading. He reads two chapters a day. How long will it take if there are 6 pages per chapter and 798 pages total?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: First, calculate how many pages the man reads per day. Since he reads two chapters a day and each chapter has 6 pages: 2 chapters/day 6 pages/chapter = 12 pages/day Now, divide the total number of pages by the number of pages he reads per day: 798 pages · 12 pages/day = 66 1/2 days Thus, it will take him 66 & 1/2 days to finish the book. Therefore, the correct answer is A. 66 & 1/2. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not correspond to the correct calculation based on the given information.

Question 2 of 5

How many grams are in 4 kilograms?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The metric system is based on powers of 10. Since 1 kilogram equals 1000 grams, to convert 4 kilograms to grams, you multiply 4 by 1000. Therefore, 4 kilograms is equal to 4000 grams. Choice B (40) is incorrect because it represents grams in 4 decagrams, not kilograms. Choice C (500) is incorrect as it is the result of 4 hectograms, not kilograms. Choice D (0) is incorrect as it implies there are no grams in 4 kilograms, which is false.

Question 4 of 5

How many gallons are in 3 fluid ounces?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To convert fluid ounces to gallons, you need to divide the number of fluid ounces by 128 because there are 128 fluid ounces in 1 gallon. Therefore, 3 fluid ounces · 128 equals approximately 0.0234 gallons. Choice A is correct. Choice B (0.5 gallons) is incorrect as it is equivalent to 64 fluid ounces, not 3. Choice C (0.38 gallons) and Choice D (0.12 gallons) are also incorrect conversions of 3 fluid ounces to gallons.

Question 5 of 5

What is 25% of 400?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: To find 25% of a number, multiply the number by 0.25 (since 25% is the same as 25/100 or 0.25). In this case, 400 x 0.25 = 100. Therefore, 25% of 400 equals 100. Choice A, 800, is incorrect because it is the result of multiplying 400 by 2, not by 0.25. Choice B, 10,000, is also incorrect as it is significantly higher than the correct answer. Choice C, 200, is incorrect as it is the result of dividing 400 by 2, not by 0.25.
