Express 25 as a fraction in lowest terms.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To express 25 as a fraction in lowest terms, we write it as 25/1. Then, we simplify the fraction by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 25. This results in 25/1 = 25/25 = 1 as the whole number part and 0 as the fractional part. Thus, 25 can be expressed as 1¼. Choice A (1â…–) is incorrect as it represents 1 and 2/5, which is not equivalent to 25. Choice B (1½) is incorrect as it represents 1 and 1/2, which is also not equivalent to 25. Choice D is empty and does not provide an answer.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: To find the result of multiplying 6 by 55, you perform the operation 6 55, which equals 330. To express this product in decimal form, you place the decimal point one place from the right, resulting in 3.3. Therefore, the correct answer is D (3.3). Choices A, B, and C are incorrect as they do not represent the correct decimal equivalent of the multiplication of 6 and 55.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: To find the product of 12 and 15, you simply multiply them together. 12 multiplied by 15 equals 180. To express 180 as a decimal, you divide by 100. Therefore, the correct answer is 1.8. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect as they represent values that are not the correct result of multiplying 12 by 15 and converting it to a decimal.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: In military time, the time of 10:30 P.M. is represented as 2230. Military time follows a 24-hour clock system where hours are not converted to a 12-hour clock. Each hour is represented from 00 to 23. Therefore, 10:30 P.M. in military time is 2230. Choice A, 1030, is incorrect as it represents 10:30 A.M. Choice B, 1300, stands for 1:00 P.M., and Choice C, 1230, is equivalent to 12:30 P.M. Hence, the correct answer is D.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The ratio given is 6:16, which can be simplified to 3:8 by dividing both sides by 2. This means that for every 3 surfers, there are 8 swimmers. To find a possible number of surfers and swimmers that fit this ratio, we can multiply both parts of the ratio by a common factor. Multiplying 3 and 8 by 24 gives us 72 surfers and 210 swimmers, which makes answer choice B the correct option. Choice A, C, and D do not reflect the ratio of surfers to swimmers given in the question.
