1. A woman received a bottle of perfume as a present. The bottle contains 3/4 oz of perfume. How many milliliters is this?

• A. 25 mL
• B. 22.5 mL
• C. 15 mL
• D. 20 mL

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To convert ounces to milliliters, multiply the number of ounces by 29.5735. 3/4 oz × 29.5735 ≈ 22.5 mL. Therefore, the correct answer is 22.5 mL. Choice A (25 mL) is incorrect as it does not result from the correct conversion. Choices C (15 mL) and D (20 mL) are also incorrect conversions.

2. How many pints are in 56 ounces?

• A. 3.5 pints
• B. 4 pints
• C. 3 pints
• D. 4.5 pints

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To convert ounces to pints, you need to know that 1 pint is equivalent to 16 ounces. Therefore, to find how many pints are in 56 ounces, you divide 56 by 16, which equals 3.5 pints. Hence, the correct answer is 3.5 pints. Choice B, 4 pints, is incorrect because it doesn't account for the conversion factor of 16 ounces per pint. Choice C, 3 pints, is incorrect as it is less than the actual conversion result. Choice D, 4.5 pints, is incorrect as it overestimates the number of pints in 56 ounces.

3. Multiply: 15 × 14 = and express the result in decimal form.

• A. 0.0021
• B. 0.021
• C. 0.21
• D. 2.1

Correct answer: D

Rationale: To find the product of 15 and 14, you multiply the two numbers together. 15 multiplied by 14 equals 210. When written in decimal form, it is 2.1. Therefore, the correct answer is 2.1, which corresponds to option D. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect as they reflect values much smaller than the actual product of 15 and 14, which is 210, equivalent to 2.1 in decimal form.

4. Teresa began collecting baseball cards exactly 8 months ago, and in that time, she has collected 144 cards. On average, how many baseball cards has she collected per month?

• A. 12
• B. 16
• C. 18
• D. 22

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Teresa collected 144 baseball cards in 8 months. To find the average number of cards collected per month, we divide the total number of cards by the total months: 144 cards ÷ 8 months = 18 cards per month. Therefore, on average, Teresa has collected 18 baseball cards per month. Choice A (12), Choice B (16), and Choice D (22) are incorrect as they do not match the correct calculation based on the information provided in the question.

5. Sarah had 1 quart of milk. How many ounces of milk is that?

• A. 16 ounces
• B. 24 ounces
• C. 32 ounces
• D. 48 ounces

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is 32 ounces. One quart is equivalent to 32 ounces. To convert quarts to ounces, you need to know that 1 quart equals 32 ounces. Therefore, 1 quart of milk is equal to 32 ounces. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect as they do not accurately convert 1 quart to ounces.
