1. Change the decimal to a percent: 0.64 =

• A. 0.64%
• B. 6.4%
• C. 64%
• D. 0.064%

Correct answer: C

Rationale: To convert a decimal to a percent, multiply by 100. In this case, 0.64 × 100 = 64%. Therefore, the correct answer is C. Choice A (0.64%) is incorrect as it represents the original decimal value in percentage form. Choice B (6.4%) is incorrect as it incorrectly multiplies the decimal value by 10 instead of 100. Choice D (0.064%) is incorrect as it represents the decimal value as a fraction of 1000 instead of 100.

2. A honeycomb cell has six equal sides, each measuring 8mm. What is its perimeter?

• A. 32mm
• B. 40mm
• C. 48mm
• D. 56mm

Correct answer: C

Rationale: To find the perimeter of a shape with equal sides, you multiply the length of one side by the number of sides. In this case, the honeycomb cell has 6 sides, each measuring 8mm. Therefore, the perimeter is calculated as perimeter = number of sides * side length = 6 * 8mm = 48mm. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because they do not correctly calculate the total length around the honeycomb cell with six sides.

3. 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.

4. Subtract 20.7 - 13.4.

• A. 7.1
• B. 7.5
• C. 7.3
• D. 7.6

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is 7.3. To subtract 13.4 from 20.7, you align the decimal points and subtract each place value: 0.7 - 0.4 = 0.3, and 2 - 1 = 1. Therefore, 20.7 - 13.4 = 7.3. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because they do not provide the accurate result of this subtraction.

5. If the quotient is 4 and the dividend is 12, what is the divisor?

• A. 3
• B. 6
• C. 4
• D. 9

Correct answer: C

Rationale: To find the divisor, you need to divide the dividend by the quotient. In this case, the dividend is 12 and the quotient is 4. Dividing 12 by 4 gives you the divisor, which is 3. Therefore, the correct answer is 4. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because they do not result from dividing the dividend by the quotient in this scenario.
