1. How many millimeters are in 4 meters?
- A. 400 mm
- B. 4000 mm
- C. 40 mm
- D. 100 mm
Correct answer: B
Rationale: To convert meters to millimeters, you need to know that there are 1000 millimeters in 1 meter. Therefore, to find out how many millimeters are in 4 meters, you multiply 4 (meters) by 1000 (millimeters per meter), which equals 4000 millimeters. Choice A, 400 mm, is incorrect because it represents 4 decimeters, not 4 meters. Choice C, 40 mm, is incorrect because it represents 4 centimeters, not 4 meters. Choice D, 100 mm, is incorrect because it represents 1 meter, not 4 meters.
2. 5 1\3 + 3 1\2.
- A. 8 5/6
- B. 9
- C. 7
- D. 8
Correct answer: A
Rationale: 5 1\3 + 3 1\2 equals 8 5\6.
3. A clinic sees an average of 25 patients every 4 hours. If the clinic is open for 8 hours, how many patients will they see in total?
- A. 35
- B. 50
- C. 75
- D. 200
Correct answer: D
Rationale: Rationale: 1. First, determine how many patients the clinic sees in one hour: 25 patients / 4 hours = 6.25 patients per hour (approximately 6 patients per hour) 2. Since the clinic is open for 8 hours, multiply the number of patients seen per hour by the number of hours the clinic is open: 6.25 patients/hour * 8 hours = 50 patients 3. Therefore, the clinic will see a total of 50 patients in 8 hours, which corresponds to answer choice D) 200.
4. Olivia’s Bakery gives out one extra cupcake for each dozen sold, to make a “baker’s dozen” of 13 in all. How many extra cupcakes does the bakery add to a special order of 180 cupcakes?
- A. 12
- B. 13
- C. 14
- D. 15
Correct answer: B
Rationale: Olivia’s Bakery gives out one extra cupcake for each dozen sold. For a special order of 180 cupcakes, there would be 180 cupcakes ÷ 12 cupcakes per dozen = 15 dozens. Therefore, the bakery adds 15 extra cupcakes to make a 'baker's dozen' of 13 in all for each dozen, resulting in a total of 15 extra cupcakes added to the special order. The correct answer is 13 (choice B) because the bakery adds one extra cupcake to each dozen, making a 'baker's dozen' of 13.
5. A circular bandage has a diameter of 6cm. What is the area covered by the bandage (area of a circle = πr^2)?
- A. 9π cm^2
- B. 18π cm^2
- C. 27π cm^2
- D. 36π cm^2
Correct answer: C
Rationale: Rationale: - The formula for the area of a circle is A = πr^2, where r is the radius of the circle. - The diameter of the circular bandage is 6 cm, so the radius (r) is half of the diameter, which is 6/2 = 3 cm. - Substitute the radius (r = 3 cm) into the formula for the area of a circle: A = π(3)^2 = 9π cm^2. - Therefore, the area covered by the bandage is 9π cm^2.
