1. How many meters are in 2 kilometers?

• A. 100 meters
• B. 200 meters
• C. 2000 meters
• D. 3000 meters

Correct answer: C

Rationale: 1 kilometer equals 1,000 meters. Therefore, 2 kilometers equals 2,000 meters. Choice A, 100 meters, is incorrect as it represents only 1/10th of a kilometer. Choice B, 200 meters, is incorrect as it represents only 1/5th of a kilometer. Choice D, 3000 meters, is incorrect as it miscalculates the conversion from kilometers to meters.

2. How many feet are in 6 meters?

• A. 1.83 feet
• B. 18.48 feet
• C. 18.8 feet
• D. 19.68 feet

Correct answer: D

Rationale: To convert meters to feet, you can use the conversion factor: 1 meter = 3.28084 feet. Therefore, for 6 meters: 6 × 3.28084 = 19.684 feet. Rounding to two decimal places, the answer is 19.68 feet. Choice D, 19.68 feet, is the correct conversion. Choice A, 1.83 feet, is incorrect as it seems to be a miscalculation. Choice B, 18.48 feet, is incorrect as it doesn't match the correct conversion. Choice C, 18.8 feet, is also incorrect as it is not the accurate conversion from 6 meters to feet.

3. 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.

4. 81:X::9:27. Find X.

• A. 3
• B. 27
• C. 21
• D. 9

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To find X in the given proportion 81:X::9:27, you can set up the equation 81/X = 9/27. Cross-multiplying gives 81 * 27 = 9 * X, which simplifies to 2187 = 9X. Dividing both sides by 9 results in X = 27. Therefore, the correct answer is B. Choice A (3) is incorrect as it does not satisfy the proportion. Choice C (21) is incorrect as it is not the correct value to make the proportion valid. Choice D (9) is incorrect as it does not align with the proportion provided.

5. What is 2/3 of 60 + 1/5 of 75?

• A. 45
• B. 55
• C. 15
• D. 50

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To solve the expression, first calculate 2/3 of 60 by multiplying 60 by 2/3, which equals 40. Then, calculate 1/5 of 75 by multiplying 75 by 1/5, which equals 15. Finally, add these results together: 40 + 15 = 55. Therefore, the correct answer is 55. Choice A (45) is incorrect because it seems to be the sum of the two fractions, not their individual calculations. Choice C (15) is incorrect because it only represents 1/5 of 75. Choice D (50) is incorrect as it might be a miscalculation of the sum of the two fractions.
