Question 1 of 5
Which of the following percentages is equal to 0.45?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: To convert 0.45 to a percentage, you multiply by 100: 0.45 100 = 45%. Therefore, the correct answer is D. 45%. Choice A, 4.5%, is incorrect. This percentage would be equal to 0.045, not 0.45. Choice B, 0.045%, is also incorrect. It represents 0.045, not 0.45. Choice C, 0.45%, is very close to the correct answer but actually represents 0.0045, not 0.45.
Question 2 of 5
You need 4/5 cups of water for a recipe. You accidentally put 1/3 cups into the mixing bowl with the dry ingredients. How much more water in cups do you need to add?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: To find how much more water is needed, subtract 1/3 cup from 4/5 cup. First, find a common denominator: The least common denominator between 5 and 3 is 15. Convert the fractions: 4/5 = 12/15, 1/3 = 5/15. Now, subtract: 12/15 - 5/15 = 7/15. Therefore, you need to add 7/15 cups of water. Choice B (2/3 cups) is incorrect because it does not represent the correct amount of additional water needed. Choice C (1/3 cups) is incorrect because this is the amount of water that was accidentally added. Choice D (1/15 cups) is incorrect as it does not reflect the correct calculation of the additional water required.
Question 3 of 5
Convert the following military time to regular time: 15:17:52.
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: To convert military time to regular time, subtract 12 from the hours if it is 13 or greater. In this case, 15:17:52 becomes 3:17:52 PM. Choice A (2:17 PM) is incorrect as it doesn't adjust for the 12-hour conversion. Choice C (5:17 AM) and Choice D (9:17 AM) are incorrect as they don't reflect the correct conversion from military time to regular time.
