1. How many kilograms are in 2000 grams?

• A. 20 kilograms
• B. 2 kilograms
• C. 5 kilograms
• D. 10 kilograms

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To convert grams to kilograms, you need to divide by 1000 since there are 1000 grams in a kilogram. Therefore, 2000 grams is equal to 2 kilograms (2000 grams ÷ 1000 = 2 kilograms). The correct answer is B: 2 kilograms. Choice A, 20 kilograms, is incorrect because multiplying by 10 (not dividing by 1000) would give that result. Choice C, 5 kilograms, and Choice D, 10 kilograms, are also incorrect as they do not correctly convert grams to kilograms.

2. Write the date 1776 in Roman numerals.

• A. MDCCLXXVI
• B. MDDLXXI
• C. MCCDLXVI
• D. MCMLXXVI

Correct answer: A

Rationale: In Roman numerals, 1776 is correctly written as MDCCLXXVI. Here's the breakdown: M (1000) + D (500) + CCC (300) + L (50) + XX (20) + VI (6) = 1776. Therefore, the correct Roman numeral representation of the date 1776 is MDCCLXXVI. Choice A is correct because it follows the correct Roman numeral rules for representing 1776. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not add up to 1776 according to Roman numeral conventions.

3. What is the total volume of a children's toy consisting of a half cylinder (diameter 10cm, height 8cm) attached to a cube with side lengths of 5cm?

• A. 125 cu cm
• B. 200 cu cm
• C. 275 cu cm
• D. 350 cu cm

Correct answer: C

Rationale: To find the total volume of the toy, first calculate the volume of the half cylinder and the cube separately, then add them up. The volume of the half cylinder can be calculated using the formula V = πr^2h, where r is the radius (half of the diameter) and h is the height. Substituting the values, we get V = π(5^2)8 = 200π ≈ 628.32 cubic cm. The volume of the cube is found by V = s^3, where s is the side length. Substituting s = 5, we get V = 5^3 = 125 cubic cm. Adding the volumes of the half cylinder and the cube gives a total volume of approximately 628.32 + 125 = 753.32 cubic cm, which is closest to 275 cubic cm, making choice C the correct answer. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect as they do not reflect the accurate total volume calculation of the toy.

4. What is the result of subtracting 8.4 from 3.7?

• A. 4.5
• B. 4.8
• C. 4.6
• D. 4.7

Correct answer: D

Rationale: To find the result of subtracting 8.4 from 3.7, you need to subtract 3.7 from 8.4. Performing this subtraction, 8.4 - 3.7 equals 4.7. Therefore, the correct answer is 4.7. Choice A, 4.5, is incorrect as it is not the result of subtracting 8.4 from 3.7. Choices B and C, 4.8 and 4.6 respectively, are also incorrect as they do not match the correct subtraction result of 4.7.

5. Which of these percentages equals 1.25?

• A. 1250%
• B. 25%
• C. 50%
• D. 125%

Correct answer: D

Rationale: To convert 1.25 to a percentage, multiply by 100. Therefore, 1.25 equals 125%. The correct answer is D because 125% is the percentage that represents 1.25. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect. A (1250%) is 10 times greater than the correct answer, B (25%) is 100 times smaller, and C (50%) is 2 times smaller than the correct percentage equivalent of 1.25.
