Choice A is correct as it represents the correct conversion. Choice B, 5 kilograms, is incorrect because it is not the result of dividing 4,000 grams by 1,000. Choice C, 1 kilogram, is incorrect because 4,000 grams is more than 1 kilogram. Choice D, 2 kilograms, is incorrect as it is not the correct conversion from grams to kilograms.

4. What is 80% of $500?

• A. $425
• B. $450
• C. $350
• D. $400

Correct answer: D

Rationale: To find 80% of $500, you multiply 0.8 by 500. Therefore, 0.8 x 500 = $400. This means that option D, $400, is the correct answer. Option A, $425, is incorrect because it is higher than the calculated value. Option B, $450, is also higher than the correct answer. Option C, $350, is lower than the calculated value. Hence, the correct answer is D, $400.

5. What is the result of adding 5 2/9 and 1 2/9?

• A. 6 4/9
• B. 7 5/9
• C. 7
• D. 5 2/9

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To add mixed numbers with fractions, first add the whole numbers together: 5 + 1 = 6. Then add the fractions: 2/9 + 2/9 = 4/9. Combining the whole number and the fraction parts gives 6 4/9. Therefore, the correct answer is 6 4/9. Choice B (7 5/9) is incorrect as the fractions were not added correctly. Choice C (7) is incorrect as it does not account for the fractions. Choice D (5 2/9) is one of the original numbers and not the sum of both.
