Question 1 of 9

Which of the following is equivalent to 0.0009?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To convert 0.0009 to a percentage, you need to multiply by 100. This gives 0.0009 as 0.09%. Therefore, choice C is the correct answer. Choice A, 0.009%, is incorrect because it represents 0.009, not 0.0009. Choice B, 0.9%, is incorrect as it represents 0.9, which is a different value. Choice D, 9%, is also incorrect as it represents 9, not 0.0009.

Question 2 of 9

How many grams of carbohydrates are in a product if it contains 4 servings, and each serving has 8 grams of carbohydrates?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To calculate the total grams of carbohydrates in the product, you multiply the number of servings by the grams of carbohydrates per serving. Given that each serving has 8 grams of carbohydrates and there are 4 servings, the total would be 4 servings * 8 grams = 32 grams. Therefore, the correct answer is A: 32 grams. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not correctly calculate the total grams of carbohydrates based on the information provided.

Question 3 of 9

A stop sign has five equal sides, each measuring 25cm. What is its perimeter?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Rationale: - Since a stop sign has five equal sides, each measuring 25cm, the perimeter can be calculated by adding up the lengths of all five sides. - Perimeter = 25cm + 25cm + 25cm + 25cm + 25cm = 125cm - Therefore, the perimeter of the stop sign is 125cm.

Question 4 of 9

7 is divisible by which of the following numbers?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Rationale: 1. 7 is divisible by 1 because every number is divisible by 1. 2. 7 is divisible by 7 because any number is divisible by itself. 3. 7 is not divisible by 2 because 7 is an odd number and not divisible by 2. 4. 7 is not divisible by 3 because the sum of the digits of 7 (7) is not divisible by 3. Therefore, 7 is divisible by 1, 7, and itself (7), making the correct answer D) 2, 3, and 7.

Question 5 of 9

If 30% of a given number is 18, what is the full number?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: If 30% of a number is 18, you can find the full number by dividing 18 by 0.30 (the decimal equivalent of 30%). This calculation results in 60. Therefore, the full number is 60. Choice B (30) is the result if 30% of the number itself was calculated, not the full number. Choices C (40) and D (45) are incorrect and do not align with the given information.

Question 6 of 9

The height of a building is 150 feet. If each floor of the building is 12 feet high, how many floors are in the building?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To determine the number of floors in the building, divide the total height of the building (150 feet) by the height of each floor (12 feet). 150 feet · 12 feet per floor = 12.5 floors. Since floors cannot be in fractions, the answer is rounded down to the nearest whole number, which is 13 floors. Therefore, the correct answer is A: 13 floors. Choice B (15 floors) is incorrect because the calculation results in 12.5 floors, which should be rounded down. Choices C (10 floors) and D (18 floors) are incorrect as they do not accurately reflect the division result and rounding down process.

Question 7 of 9

An office manager makes photocopies for the entire staff each day. At the end of the week, she finds that the photocopy machine has made a total of 3,475 copies. If 6 people used the copier and each person made the same number of copies, how many copies did each person make?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To find out how many copies each person made, divide the total number of copies made (3,475) by the number of people who used the copier (6). This gives 579 copies per person (3,475 · 6 = 579). Therefore, each person made 579 copies. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not result from the correct division of the total number of copies by the number of people who used the copier.

Question 8 of 9

What is the result of subtracting 7 7/10 from 3 4/5?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To subtract 7 7/10 from 3 4/5, first convert 3 4/5 to have the same denominator as 7 7/10. Converting 4/5 to 8/10, the subtraction becomes 7 7/10 - 3 8/10. Subtracting, 7 - 3 = 4 and 7/10 - 8/10 = -1/10. Therefore, the result is 3 4/5 - 7 7/10 = 3 9/10. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not reflect the correct subtraction of fractions and whole numbers in this scenario.

Question 9 of 9

Solve for x: 3(x - 4) = 18.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To solve the equation, begin by distributing the 3 on the left side: 3x - 12 = 18. Next, add 12 to both sides to isolate x: 3x = 30. Finally, divide by 3 to determine the value of x: x = 10. Therefore, the correct answer is x = 10. Choice B, x = 12, is incorrect as the correct value of x is 10, not 12. Choice C, x = 5, is incorrect as it does not satisfy the equation after substitution. Choice D, x = 3, is incorrect as it does not fulfill the equation when substituted back.
