Question 1 of 5

Multiply: 4/9 1 4/5 2/5.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To multiply the fractions, convert the mixed numbers to improper fractions: 1 4/5 = 9/5. Then, multiply the fractions: (4/9) (9/5) (2/5) = 8/25. The correct answer is A. Choice B is incorrect as it does not match the result of the multiplication. Choice C is incorrect as it is not the result of multiplying the fractions. Choice D is incorrect as it is not the result of the given multiplication.

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

Question 3 of 5

How many ounces are in 3 5/8 quarts?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To convert quarts to ounces, we need to know that 1 quart is equal to 32 ounces. To find out how many ounces are in 3 5/8 quarts, we multiply 3 quarts by 32 (96) and add the equivalent of 5/8 of a quart, which is 16 ounces (32 * 5/8 = 16). Adding these together gives us a total of 112 ounces. Therefore, the correct answer is 184 ounces. Choice B (132 oz) is incorrect as it does not account for the additional 16 ounces from the 5/8 of a quart. Choice C (128 oz) is incorrect as it miscalculates the total number of ounces. Choice D (320 oz) is incorrect as it incorrectly multiplies 3.625 by 32, which is not the correct way to convert quarts to ounces.

Question 4 of 5

Multiply: 3/4 1/3.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To multiply fractions, multiply the numerators together and the denominators together. In this case, 3/4 1/3 = (3 1) / (4 3) = 3/12 = 1/4. Therefore, the correct answer is A: 1/4. Choices B (1/3), C (3/5), and D (3/8) are incorrect because they do not result from the correct multiplication of the given fractions.

Question 5 of 5

Subtract 6 1/2 - 2 2/3.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To subtract mixed numbers, find a common denominator. Converting 6 1/2 to 6 3/6 and 2 2/3 to 2 4/6, the calculation becomes 6 3/6 - 2 4/6 = 4 1/6. Therefore, the correct answer is A. Choice B (3 1/3) is incorrect as the correct result is not an improper fraction. Choice C (3 5/6) is incorrect as it does not represent the result of the subtraction. Choice D (4 1/3) is incorrect as it does not match the correct calculation.
