Question 1 of 5

What is the least common denominator for the fractions below? 1/2, 2/3, 4/5

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To find the least common denominator for fractions 1/2, 2/3, and 4/5, we need to identify the least common multiple of the denominators. The denominators are 2, 3, and 5. The least common multiple of 2, 3, and 5 is 30. Therefore, 30 is the least common denominator for these fractions. Choice B (25), C (7), and D (19) are incorrect because they are not the least common multiple of the denominators of the given fractions.

Question 3 of 5

Two friends get frozen yogurt. The ratio of yogurt to toppings is 4:3. If one of the friends has 4.5 oz of toppings in their bowl, what is the amount of yogurt in their dessert?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The ratio 4:3 implies that for every 4 oz of yogurt, there are 3 oz of toppings. To find the amount of yogurt when the friend has 4.5 oz of toppings, we use the proportion: (4/3) 4.5 = 6 oz. Therefore, the amount of yogurt in their dessert is 6 oz. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not reflect the correct calculation based on the given ratio.

Question 4 of 5

Which of the following is the decimal form of 87.5%?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To convert a percentage to a decimal, you move the decimal point two places to the left. Therefore, 87.5% as a decimal is 0.875. Choice A (875) is incorrect as it represents the percentage without converting to a decimal. Choice B (8,750) is incorrect as it represents the percentage in whole numbers without decimal conversion. Choice D (8.75) is incorrect as it represents 875% instead of 87.5%.

Question 5 of 5
