Question 1 of 5
Write the date 2007 in Roman numerals.
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: In Roman numerals, the date 2007 is correctly represented as MMVII. The Roman numeral M stands for 1000, and when repeated twice (MM), it represents 2000. The Roman numeral V represents 5, and when followed by II (two ones), it correctly represents 2007. Choice B (MDVII) is incorrect because D represents 500, and 2007 is greater than that. Choice C (MMDII) is incorrect because D represents 500, and there are two of them, making it 1000, not 2000. Choice D (MMXD) is incorrect as XD is an invalid Roman numeral combination.

Question 3 of 5
In a scale drawing for a garden, 2 cm = 1 m. If the garden measures 8 cm by 10 cm in the drawing, how large will it be in reality?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: In the scale drawing, 2 cm represents 1 m. To find the actual dimensions of the garden in reality, we need to multiply the dimensions in the drawing by the scale factor. So, 8 cm x 2 = 16 cm in reality (length) and 10 cm x 2 = 20 cm in reality (width). Converting these to meters, the garden will be 16 m by 20 m. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because they do not correctly apply the scale factor to determine the actual dimensions of the garden.
Question 4 of 5
Express the ratio of 13:60 as a percentage.
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: To express the ratio 13:60 as a percentage, calculate the decimal form of the ratio by dividing 13 by 60: 13/60 ≈ 0.2167. Next, convert this decimal to a percentage by multiplying by 100: 0.2167 x 100 = 21.67%. Choice A, 19.50%, is incorrect as it does not accurately represent the ratio. Choice C, 25.50%, and Choice D, 31%, are also incorrect calculations of the percentage equivalent of the ratio 13:60.
Question 5 of 5
Gerald can bake 3 dozen cookies in 30 minutes. How long will it take him to bake 12 dozen cookies?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: If Gerald can bake 3 dozen cookies in 30 minutes, then he can bake 1 dozen cookies in 10 minutes (30 minutes / 3 = 10 minutes). To bake 12 dozen cookies, it would take him 120 minutes (12 dozen x 10 minutes = 120 minutes), which is equivalent to 1 hour and 40 minutes. Choice A (90 minutes) is incorrect because it does not account for the correct proportion of cookies baked. Choice C (2 hours) and Choice D (4 hours) are incorrect as they overestimate the time required based on the given information.
