Question 5 of 9
How many inches are in 1.5 yards?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: To convert yards to inches, multiply the number of yards by 36 (since there are 36 inches in a yard). 1.5 yards 36 inches/yard = 54 inches. Therefore, the correct answer is 54 inches. Choice B, 60 inches, is incorrect as it incorrectly assumes that there are 40 inches in a yard. Choice C, 72 inches, is incorrect as it multiplies 1.5 by 48, which is not the correct conversion factor. Choice D, 84 inches, is incorrect as it multiplies 1.5 by 56, which is not the correct conversion factor.
Question 6 of 9
A female ran a 24-mile course. Her first 6 miles took 1 hour, the second set of 6 miles took 1.2 hours, the third set of 6 miles took 1.5 hours, and the fourth set of 6 miles took 1.6 hours. How long did it take her to complete the course?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: To find the total time taken, add the time for each segment: 1 hour + 1.2 hours + 1.5 hours + 1.6 hours = 5.3 hours. Therefore, it took her 5.3 hours to complete the course. The other choices are incorrect because they do not accurately reflect the cumulative time calculated based on the given information.
Question 7 of 9
What is 80% of $500?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: To find 80% of $500, you multiply 0.8 by 500. Therefore, 0.8 x 500 = $400. This means that option D, $400, is the correct answer. Option A, $425, is incorrect because it is higher than the calculated value. Option B, $450, is also higher than the correct answer. Option C, $350, is lower than the calculated value. Hence, the correct answer is D, $400.
Question 8 of 9
A patient's weight is measured as 75 kilograms. What is their weight in pounds?
