1. What is the estimated total amount of money the roommates used to purchase the gift?

• A. $34
• B. $35
• C. $36
• D. $37

Correct answer: C

Rationale: To find the total amount spent by the roommates, you need to add up the individual amounts each roommate contributed. Anna contributed $18, Liz contributed $12, and Jane contributed $6. Adding these amounts together gives us $18 + $12 + $6 = $36. Therefore, the correct answer is $36. Option A ($34), Option B ($35), and Option D ($37) are incorrect as they do not match the correct calculation of the total amount spent by the roommates.

2. After a hurricane struck a Pacific island, donations began flooding into a disaster relief organization. The organization provided four options for donors. What percentage of the funds was donated to support construction costs?

• A. 49%
• B. 23%
• C. 18%
• D. 10%

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B (23%). The information was obtained from the pie chart which indicated that 23% of the funds were allocated to support construction costs. Choice A (49%), Choice C (18%), and Choice D (10%) are incorrect as they do not reflect the accurate percentage designated for construction costs according to the data provided.

3. What is the value of the sum of 0.75 and 0.625?

• A. 0.875
• B. 1.375
• C. 1.625
• D. 0.125

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Adding 0.75 and 0.625 gives: 0.75+0.625=1.375.

4. A study about anorexia was conducted on 100 patients. 70% were women, and 10% of the men were overweight as children. How many male patients were not overweight as children?

• A. 3
• B. 10
• C. 27
• D. 30

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Out of the 100 patients, 30% were men, which equals 30 male patients. It is given that 10% of the men were overweight as children, so 10% of 30 is 3, meaning 3 male patients were overweight. Therefore, the remaining 27 male patients were not overweight as children. Choice A, B, and D are incorrect as they do not accurately represent the number of male patients who were not overweight.

5. Veronica decided to celebrate her promotion by purchasing a new car. The base price for the car was $40,210. She paid an additional $3,015 for a surround sound system and $5,218 for a maintenance package. What was the total price of Veronica's new car?

• A. $50,210
• B. $48,443
• C. $43,225
• D. $40,210

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To find the total cost of Veronica's new car, you need to sum up all her expenses. So, $40,210 (base price) + $3,015 (surround sound system) + $5,218 (maintenance package) = $48,443. Therefore, the correct answer is $48,443. Choice A ($50,210) is incorrect as it incorrectly adds the base price to the other costs. Choice C ($43,225) is incorrect as it only includes the base price and the maintenance package, omitting the cost of the surround sound system. Choice D ($40,210) is incorrect as it only includes the base price of the car and not the additional costs for the surround sound system and maintenance package.
