1. A clinic sees an average of 25 patients every 4 hours. If the clinic is open for 8 hours, how many patients will they see in total?

• A. 35
• B. 50
• C. 75
• D. 200

Correct answer: D

Rationale: Rationale: 1. First, determine how many patients the clinic sees in one hour: 25 patients / 4 hours = 6.25 patients per hour (approximately 6 patients per hour) 2. Since the clinic is open for 8 hours, multiply the number of patients seen per hour by the number of hours the clinic is open: 6.25 patients/hour * 8 hours = 50 patients 3. Therefore, the clinic will see a total of 50 patients in 8 hours, which corresponds to answer choice D) 200.

2. Richard wants to make 2.5 batches of sugar cookies. One batch calls for 1.75 cups of sugar. How many cups of sugar will Richard need for 2.5 batches?

• A. 4
• B. 3
• C. 5 cups
• D. 3

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To calculate how much sugar Richard needs for 2.5 batches, multiply the amount of sugar needed for one batch (1.75 cups) by 2.5: 1.75 × 2.5 = 4.375  cups 1.75×2.5=4.375 cups Since the question is asking for the nearest whole number, 4.375 rounds to 4.

3. A teacher's aide must convert the directions from quarts to liters. The directions say to dilute the contents of a package in 3 quarts of water. How many liters should be used?

• A. 2.8 liters
• B. 3.5 liters
• C. 2.5 liters
• D. 4.0 liters

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To convert quarts to liters, you can multiply the number of quarts by 0.946353. In this case, 3 quarts is approximately 2.8 liters. Therefore, the correct answer is 2.8 liters. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not reflect the accurate conversion from quarts to liters.

4. How many liters are in 8,000 milliliters?

• A. 0.8 liters
• B. 8 liters
• C. 0.8 liters
• D. 0.08 liters

Correct answer: B

Rationale: There are 1,000 milliliters in a liter. To convert milliliters to liters, you divide by 1,000. Therefore, 8,000 milliliters ÷ 1,000 = 8 liters. This makes option B the correct answer. Option A, 0.8 liters, is incorrect as it is 1/10th of the correct answer. Option C, 0.8 liters (repeated), is also incorrect. Option D, 0.08 liters, is incorrect as it is 1/100th of the correct answer.

5. Add 2\3 + 1\6 + 2\5.

• A. 1 & 7\30
• B. 1 & 1\15
• C. 2\5
• D. 3\4

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To add fractions, find a common denominator (30), which gives 20/30 + 5/30 + 12/30=37/30= 1 7/30
