1. How many kilometers are there in 12 miles?

• A. 7.5 kilometers
• B. 13.2 kilometers
• C. 19.2 kilometers
• D. 22 kilometers

Correct answer: C

Rationale: To convert miles to kilometers, you can use the conversion factor of 1 mile is equal to 1.609 kilometers. Therefore, to find the number of kilometers in 12 miles, you can multiply 12 miles by 1.609 to get 19.2 kilometers. The correct answer is 19.2 kilometers, making choice C the correct option. Choice A (7.5 kilometers) is incorrect because it represents half the correct conversion. Choice B (13.2 kilometers) is incorrect as it does not apply the correct conversion factor. Choice D (22 kilometers) is incorrect and represents an incorrect conversion calculation.

2. What is 40% of 150?

• A. 60
• B. 65
• C. 70
• D. 85

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To find 40% of 150, you multiply 150 by 0.40 (which represents 40% in decimal form). This calculation results in 60. Therefore, choice A, 60, is the correct answer. Choice B (65), choice C (70), and choice D (85) are incorrect as they do not reflect the accurate calculation for finding 40% of 150.

3. How many millimeters are in 5 meters?

• A. 5000 mm
• B. 4000 mm
• C. 5500 mm
• D. 6000 mm

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To convert meters to millimeters, you multiply by 1000 since there are 1000 millimeters in 1 meter. Therefore, 5 meters multiplied by 1000 equals 5000 millimeters. Choice A is correct as it represents the accurate conversion from meters to millimeters. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not provide the correct conversion factor from meters to millimeters.

4. In a bowling team consisting of 34 members, with 18 being male, if 4 females leave the team, what percent of the remaining members are male?

• A. 50%
• B. 60%
• C. 70%
• D. 55%

Correct answer: B

Rationale: After 4 females leave the team, there are 30 members remaining. Out of these, 18 are male. To find the percentage of male members, divide the number of male members (18) by the total number of remaining members (30) and multiply by 100. Percentage of male members = (18/30) * 100 = 60%. Therefore, 60% of the remaining members are male. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect as they do not reflect the accurate calculation based on the information provided in the question.

5. What is the value of x in the ratio and proportion 0.1:10=x:400?

• A. 5
• B. 4
• C. 50
• D. 25

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To solve the proportion 0.1:10=x:400, first, simplify the left side to 1:100. Then, set up the proportion as 1:100=x:400. Cross multiply to get x = 4. Therefore, the correct answer is B. Choice A (5) is incorrect because it does not match the calculated value of x. Choice C (50) is incorrect as it is not the result of solving the proportion provided. Choice D (25) is incorrect as it does not align with the correct calculation of x.
