1. Divide: 11 ÷ 5 =
- A. 1.424
- B. 1.622
- C. 2.2
- D. 2
Correct answer: C
Rationale: To divide 11 by 5, you need to perform the division operation. 11 divided by 5 equals 2.2. Therefore, the correct answer is C. Choice A (1.424) and Choice B (1.622) are incorrect as they do not result from the division of 11 by 5. Choice D (2) is close but not accurate, as the exact result of 11 divided by 5 is 2.2.
2. The formula for calculating ideal body weight (IBW) for men is IBW (kg) = 50 + 2.3 * (height in cm - 150). If a man is 180cm tall, what is his ideal body weight?
- A. 68kg
- B. 71kg
- C. 74kg
- D. 77kg
Correct answer: B
Rationale: Rationale: 1. Substitute the given height into the formula for calculating ideal body weight (IBW) for men: IBW (kg) = 50 + 2.3 * (180 - 150) IBW (kg) = 50 + 2.3 * 30 IBW (kg) = 50 + 69 IBW (kg) = 119 2. Therefore, the ideal body weight for a man who is 180cm tall is 119kg. 3. Among the given options, the closest value to 119kg is 71kg (option B). 4. Hence, the correct answer is B) 71kg.
3. How many inches are in 1.5 yards?
- A. 54 inches
- B. 60 inches
- C. 72 inches
- D. 84 inches
Correct answer: A
Rationale: To convert yards to inches, multiply the number of yards by 36 (since there are 36 inches in a yard). 1.5 yards × 36 inches/yard = 54 inches. Therefore, the correct answer is 54 inches. Choice B, 60 inches, is incorrect as it incorrectly assumes that there are 40 inches in a yard. Choice C, 72 inches, is incorrect as it multiplies 1.5 by 48, which is not the correct conversion factor. Choice D, 84 inches, is incorrect as it multiplies 1.5 by 56, which is not the correct conversion factor.
4. Erin has 6.25 peach pies. She gives Rose 3.75 of the peach pies. How many pies does Erin have left?
- A. 2 peach pies
- B. 3 peach pies
- C. 1 peach pie
- D. 2 peach pies
Correct answer: A
Rationale: To find how many pies Erin has left, subtract 3.75 from 6.25: 6.25 - 3.75 = 2.5 peach pies. Erin has 2.5 peach pies left, which rounds down to 2 pies, making choice A the correct answer. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not reflect the correct subtraction result.
5. Divide: 5 ÷ 9 =
- A. 0.05
- B. 0.5
- C. 5
- D. 50
Correct answer: B
Rationale: When dividing 5 by 9, you are finding how many times 9 can fit into 5. Since 9 is greater than 5, the result will be less than 1. Therefore, 5 ÷ 9 equals 0.555... which is approximately 0.5. Choice A (0.05) is incorrect because it implies a smaller value than the correct answer. Choice C (5) is incorrect as it is not the result of dividing 5 by 9. Choice D (50) is incorrect as it is a much larger value than the correct answer.
