1. What is the result of dividing 152 by 2?

• A. 0.0116
• B. 0.116
• C. 76
• D. 11.6

Correct answer: C

Rationale: To divide 152 by 2, you perform the division operation, which is 152 ÷ 2 = 76. The correct answer is 76. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect. Choice A, 0.0116, is the result of dividing 1 by 152 instead of 152 by 2. Choice B, 0.116, is the result of dividing 1.52 by 2. Choice D, 11.6, is the result of multiplying 152 by 2.

2. The least common multiple (LCM) of two numbers is the smallest number that is a multiple of both. Which of the following represents the LCM of 14 and 21?

• A. 42
• B. 63
• C. 84
• D. 168

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Rationale: To find the least common multiple (LCM) of 14 and 21, we need to determine the smallest number that is a multiple of both 14 and 21. First, list the multiples of 14: 14, 28, 42, 56, 70, 84, ... Next, list the multiples of 21: 21, 42, 63, 84, ... The smallest number that appears in both lists is 42. Therefore, the LCM of 14 and 21 is 42.

3. What is the result of subtracting 4.7 from 9.5?

• A. 4.8
• B. 4.9
• C. 4.6
• D. 4.7

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct subtraction is 9.5 - 4.7 = 4.8. Therefore, the correct answer is 4.8. Choice B (4.9) is incorrect because 9.5 - 4.7 is not equal to 4.9. Choice C (4.6) is incorrect as it is not the result of subtracting 4.7 from 9.5. Choice D (4.7) is the number being subtracted and not the result of the subtraction.

4. What is the perimeter of a garden bed with a side length of 8 meters?

• A. 16m
• B. 24m
• C. 32m
• D. 64m

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 24m. The perimeter of a square is found by adding up all its sides. In this case, since the garden bed has a side length of 8 meters, the perimeter would be 8m + 8m + 8m + 8m = 24m. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not correctly calculate the perimeter of a square with a side length of 8 meters.

5. What is the boiling point of water?

• A. 100°C
• B. 98°C
• C. 99°C
• D. 102°C

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is 100°C (Choice A). The boiling point of water is the temperature at which it changes from a liquid to a gas. Under normal atmospheric pressure, water boils at 100°C. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not represent the standard boiling point of water. 98°C, 99°C, and 102°C do not correspond to the temperature at which water boils under normal conditions.
