1. Convert 7 grams to milligrams.

• A. 700 mg
• B. 7,000 mg
• C. 70 mg
• D. 0.007 mg

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To convert grams to milligrams, you need to multiply by 1,000 since there are 1,000 milligrams in a gram. Therefore, 7 grams x 1,000 = 7,000 mg. Choice A (700 mg) is incorrect as it represents 700 grams, not milligrams. Choice C (70 mg) is incorrect as it implies that 7 grams is equivalent to 70 milligrams, which is inaccurate. Choice D (0.007 mg) is also incorrect since it represents a fraction of a milligram, significantly less than the original 7 grams.

2. If a person consumes 500 calories per meal, how many calories will they consume in 3 meals?

• A. 1000 calories
• B. 1500 calories
• C. 2000 calories
• D. 500 calories

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To find the total calories consumed in 3 meals, you multiply the number of meals by the calories per meal: 3 meals x 500 calories/meal = 1500 calories. Therefore, the correct answer is 1500 calories. Choice A (1000 calories) is incorrect because it miscalculates the total calories. Choice C (2000 calories) is incorrect as it overestimates the total calories. Choice D (500 calories) is incorrect as it represents the calories consumed in a single meal, not in 3 meals.

3. A circular bandage has a diameter of 6cm. What is the area covered by the bandage (area of a circle = πr^2)?

• A. 9π cm^2
• B. 18π cm^2
• C. 27π cm^2
• D. 36π cm^2

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Rationale: - The formula for the area of a circle is A = πr^2, where r is the radius of the circle. - The diameter of the circular bandage is 6 cm, so the radius (r) is half of the diameter, which is 6/2 = 3 cm. - Substitute the radius (r = 3 cm) into the formula for the area of a circle: A = π(3)^2 = 9π cm^2. - Therefore, the area covered by the bandage is 9π cm^2.

4. Chun Mei earns a 5% commission on each appliance she sells. If she sells a washer for $749 and a dryer for $689, what will her commission be?

• A. $37.45
• B. $71.90
• C. $149.80
• D. $287.60

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To calculate Chun Mei's commission, we first find the total sales amount by adding the prices of the washer and dryer: $749 + $689 = $1438. Next, we calculate her 5% commission on this total sales amount: 0.05 * $1438 = $71.90. Therefore, Chun Mei's commission for selling both appliances will be $71.90. Choice B, $71.90, is the correct answer. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect as they do not reflect the accurate calculation of Chun Mei's commission based on the given scenario.

5. Multiply: 25 × 4 = and express the result in decimal form.

• A. 0.01
• B. 0.1
• C. 1
• D. 10

Correct answer: C

Rationale: To multiply 25 by 4, you get 100. To express the result in decimal form, you divide by 100. Therefore, the result is 1. Choice A (0.01) is incorrect as it represents 1/100, not the result of 25 × 4. Choice B (0.1) is incorrect as it represents 1/10. Choice D (10) is incorrect as it is the result before converting it to decimal form.
