Question 4 of 5
If Kevin can wash 30 cars in 15 minutes, how many minutes will it take him to wash 100 cars?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: To find out how many minutes Kevin will take to wash 100 cars, set up a proportion: 30 cars is to 15 minutes as 100 cars is to x minutes. Cross multiplying gives 30x = 1500. Solving for x, x = 1500 / 30 = 50. Therefore, it will take Kevin 50 minutes to wash 100 cars. Choice A is correct. Choice B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not correctly calculate the time needed based on the given information.
Question 5 of 5
How many pounds are in 48 ounces?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: To convert ounces to pounds, you need to know that there are 16 ounces in a pound. Therefore, to find out how many pounds are in 48 ounces, you divide 48 by 16: 48 · 16 = 3 pounds. This means that 48 ounces is equivalent to 3 pounds. Choice B, 6 lbs, is incorrect as it doesn't correctly convert 48 ounces to pounds. Choice C, 4 lbs, is incorrect as it doesn't take into account the conversion factor of 16 ounces per pound. Choice D, 8 lbs, is also incorrect as it doesn't reflect the accurate conversion of ounces to pounds.
