Question 1 of 5
Multiply: 22 75 = and express the answer in decimal form.
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: 16.5. To find the product of 22 and 75, you multiply the two numbers together. Therefore, 22 75 = 1650, which is correctly represented as 16.5 in decimal form. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect as they do not reflect the correct decimal form of the product of 22 and 75. Choice A, 0.00165, is incorrect as it is a very small value that does not match the result of multiplying 22 and 75. Choice B, 0.0165, is also incorrect as it is one tenth of the correct answer. Choice C, 0.165, is incorrect as it is one hundredth of the correct answer. Therefore, the only correct representation in decimal form for the product of 22 and 75 is 16.5.
Question 2 of 5
A cake recipe calls for 2½ cups of flour. How many cups are needed to make 6 cakes?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: To make one cake, you need 2½ cups of flour. To make 6 cakes, you would need 6 times the amount of flour for one cake, which is 2½ x 6 = 15 cups. Therefore, the correct answer is 15 cups. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect as they do not correctly calculate the total amount of flour needed for 6 cakes.
Question 3 of 5
A patient's oxygen flow rate is set at 4 liters per minute. How many cubic centimeters of oxygen are delivered per minute?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: 1 liter is equal to 1,000 cubic centimeters. Therefore, when the oxygen flow rate is 4 liters per minute, the calculation is 4 x 1,000 = 4,000 cubic centimeters. Hence, at a flow rate of 4 liters per minute, 4,000 cubic centimeters of oxygen are delivered per minute. Choice A, 400 cubic centimeters, is incorrect because it miscalculates the conversion from liters to cubic centimeters. Choices C and D, 40,000 cubic centimeters and 400,000 cubic centimeters, respectively, are significantly higher than the correct answer due to incorrect conversions or additional errors in calculation.
Question 4 of 5
What is the result of dividing 152 by 2?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: To divide 152 by 2, you perform the division operation, which is 152 · 2 = 76. The correct answer is 76. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect. Choice A, 0.0116, is the result of dividing 1 by 152 instead of 152 by 2. Choice B, 0.116, is the result of dividing 1.52 by 2. Choice D, 11.6, is the result of multiplying 152 by 2.
Question 5 of 5
Bai Lin estimates that of her monthly paycheck, she puts 10% in savings and spends 30% on living expenses. If she has $1,545 left after that, how much is her monthly paycheck?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Let X be Bai Lin's monthly paycheck. From the given information, she puts 10% of X in savings and spends 30% on living expenses. This means she retains 60% (100% - 10% - 30%) of her paycheck, which equals $1,545. Therefore, 60% of X is $1,545. To find X, we divide $1,545 by 60% (or 0.60), which gives us X = $2,575. Hence, Bai Lin's monthly paycheck is $2,575. Therefore, the correct answer is $2,575. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because they do not match the calculated monthly paycheck based on the given percentages and remaining amount.
