Question 1 of 5
Convert this military time to regular time: 0705 hours.
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: In military time, 0705 hours translates to 7:05 A.M. Military time follows a 24-hour clock format, so there is no change from A.M. to P.M. like in regular time. Choice B (7:05 P.M.) is incorrect as 0705 hours is in the morning. Choices C (5:07 A.M.) and D (5:07 P.M.) are incorrect due to the incorrect order of hours and minutes.

Question 3 of 5
Divide: 5,117 · 31 =
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: When dividing 5,117 by 31, the quotient is 165 with a remainder of 2. The correct answer is 165 r2. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect as they do not reflect the correct division result. Choice A is close but has the wrong remainder. Choices B and C have incorrect quotients and remainders, making them inaccurate. Therefore, the correct answer is D, 165 r2.
Question 4 of 5
Gus is making a chili recipe that calls for three parts beans to five parts ground beef. If he is using 8 cups of ground beef for a big family dinner, how many cups of beans will Gus need?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: For every 3 parts of beans, Gus needs 5 parts of ground beef. This means the ratio of beans to beef is 3:5. If Gus is using 8 cups of ground beef, the total parts would be 3 parts beans to 5 parts beef, which is a total of 8 parts. To find out how many cups of beans Gus needs, we can set up a proportion: 3/5 = x/8. Cross multiplying gives us 5x = 24. Solving for x, we get x = 4. Therefore, Gus will need 4 cups of beans. Choice A, C, and D are incorrect as they do not align with the correct proportion calculation.
Question 5 of 5
What number is 98 175% of?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: To find the number that 98 is 175% of, we can set up the equation: x = 1.75 * x. By solving this equation, we get x = 56. Therefore, 98 is 175% of 56. Choice D, 56, is the correct answer as it represents the number that satisfies the given condition. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect as they do not result in 98 when multiplied by 1.75.
