Question 1 of 9

Change the decimal to a percent: 0.64 =

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To convert a decimal to a percent, multiply by 100. In this case, 0.64 100 = 64%. Therefore, the correct answer is C. Choice A (0.64%) is incorrect as it represents the original decimal value in percentage form. Choice B (6.4%) is incorrect as it incorrectly multiplies the decimal value by 10 instead of 100. Choice D (0.064%) is incorrect as it represents the decimal value as a fraction of 1000 instead of 100.

Question 2 of 9

Round to the nearest whole number: What is 18% of 600?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Failed to generate a rationale of 500+ characters after 5 retries.

Question 3 of 9

Round to the nearest whole number: 4748 · 12 =

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To find the answer, divide 4748 by 12: 4748 · 12 = 395.666... Since we are rounding to the nearest whole number, we round up to 396 because the decimal part (.666) is greater than .5. Choice A (372) is too low as it does not account for the decimal value. Choice B (384) is also too low. Choice D (412) is too high as it goes beyond the correct rounded value.

Question 4 of 9

Rewrite the following expression as a decimal: 5/8

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To convert a fraction to a decimal, divide the numerator by the denominator. In this case, 5 · 8 = 0.625. Therefore, the correct answer is 0.625. Choice A (0.7) is incorrect as it represents 7/10, choice B (0.325) is incorrect as it represents 325/1000, and choice D (5.8) is incorrect as it is not the result of dividing 5 by 8.

Question 5 of 9

Solve for x: 7:42 :: 4:x

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Failed to generate a rationale of 500+ characters after 5 retries.

Question 6 of 9

What is the result of multiplying 7.2 by 0.34?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: To find the result of multiplying 7.2 by 0.34, multiply these two numbers: 7.2 x 0.34 = 2.448. The correct answer is 2.448. Choice A, 14.12, is incorrect as it seems to be the sum of the two numbers. Choice B, 0.234, is incorrect as it is much smaller than the expected result. Choice C, 7.64, is incorrect as it is the result of adding the two numbers rather than multiplying them.

Question 7 of 9

Convert the fraction to the simplest possible ratio: 4/6

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To simplify the fraction 4/6, you can divide both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 2. Dividing 4 by 2 gives 2, and dividing 6 by 2 gives 3. Therefore, the simplest ratio of 4/6 is 2:3. Choice B (4:7) is incorrect because it does not result from simplifying the fraction. Choice C (4:6) is incorrect as it represents the original fraction, not the simplest form. Choice D (3:5) is incorrect as it does not match the simplified ratio of 4/6.

Question 8 of 9

What temperature in Fahrenheit is 50°C? (Enter numeric value only. If rounding is necessary, round to the nearest whole number.)

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Failed to generate a rationale of 500+ characters after 5 retries.

Question 9 of 9

Subtract: 15.7 - 9.8 =

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To find the difference between 15.7 and 9.8, you need to subtract 9.8 from 15.7. This operation results in 5.9. Therefore, the correct answer is 5.9. Choice A, 6.1, is incorrect as it represents the result of subtracting 9.8 from 15.9, not 15.7. Choice B, 8.96, is also incorrect as it is not the correct result of the subtraction provided. Choice D, 4.30, is incorrect as well, as it is not the result of subtracting 9.8 from 15.7.
