1. How many milliliters are in 4 liters?

• A. 40 milliliters
• B. 40 milliliters
• C. 4000 milliliters
• D. 4 milliliters

Correct answer: C

Rationale: To convert liters to milliliters, you must remember that 1 liter is equal to 1,000 milliliters. Therefore, to find out how many milliliters are in 4 liters, you multiply 4 by 1,000. This gives you a total of 4,000 milliliters in 4 liters. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because they do not correctly convert liters to milliliters. A and B incorrectly represent 40 milliliters, which would be the result if you mistakenly multiplied by 10 instead of 1,000. Choice D is even further from the correct answer, as it suggests only 4 milliliters, which is significantly less than the actual conversion of 4 liters to milliliters.

2. Eighty percent of the class passed with a 75 or higher. If that percentage equals 24 students, how many students were in the whole class?

• A. 18
• B. 30
• C. 36
• D. 60

Correct answer: C

Rationale: If 80% of the class passed with a 75 or higher, and that equals 24 students, you can set up a proportion to find the total number of students in the class. Since 80% is equal to 24 students, 100% (the whole class) would be equal to (24/80) x 100 = 30 students. Therefore, the total number of students in the whole class is 30 / 80 x 100 = 36. Choice A (18) is incorrect as it does not match the calculation based on the information given. Choice B (30) is incorrect because it represents the intermediate calculation but not the total number of students in the class. Choice D (60) is incorrect as it is double the correct answer and does not align with the given information.

3. 7 is divisible by which of the following numbers?

• A. 2 only
• B. 3 only
• C. 1 and 7 only
• D. 2, 3, and 7

Correct answer: D

Rationale: Rationale: 1. 7 is divisible by 1 because every number is divisible by 1. 2. 7 is divisible by 7 because any number is divisible by itself. 3. 7 is not divisible by 2 because 7 is an odd number and not divisible by 2. 4. 7 is not divisible by 3 because the sum of the digits of 7 (7) is not divisible by 3. Therefore, 7 is divisible by 1, 7, and itself (7), making the correct answer D) 2, 3, and 7.

4. A baker can bake 4 cakes with 10 cups of sugar. If he has a 30-cup bag that is half full, how many cakes can he bake?

• A. 6 cakes
• B. 5 cakes
• C. 7 cakes
• D. 8 cakes

Correct answer: A

Rationale: If the 30-cup bag is half full, it contains 15 cups of sugar. Since 10 cups are needed to bake 4 cakes, the baker can bake 4 * (15 / 10) = 6 cakes. Therefore, the correct answer is 6 cakes. Choice B, 5 cakes, is incorrect as it does not consider the correct sugar-to-cake ratio. Choices C and D are incorrect as they do not accurately calculate the number of cakes based on the available sugar.

5. How many milliliters are in 5 liters?

• A. 5000 milliliters
• B. 50 milliliters
• C. 500 milliliters
• D. 0.5 milliliters

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To convert liters to milliliters, remember there are 1,000 milliliters in a liter. So, to find how many milliliters are in 5 liters, you multiply 5 (liters) by 1,000 (milliliters per liter), which equals 5,000 milliliters. Choice A is correct as it converts 5 liters to milliliters accurately. Choice B, 50 milliliters, is incorrect as it mistakenly converts liters to milliliters by a factor of 100 instead of 1,000. Choice C, 500 milliliters, is incorrect as it also wrongly converts liters to milliliters by a factor of 10 instead of 1,000. Choice D, 0.5 milliliters, is incorrect as it inaccurately converts 5 liters to 0.5 milliliters, which is not correct.
