1. 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.

2. How many liters are in 300 milliliters?

• A. 0.3 liters
• B. 3 liters
• C. 0.03 liters
• D. 3.3 liters

Correct answer: A

Rationale: 300 milliliters is equivalent to 0.3 liters. To convert milliliters to liters, you need to move the decimal three places to the left. Therefore, the correct answer is A. Choice B (3 liters) is incorrect as it represents the conversion of 3000 milliliters. Choice C (0.03 liters) is incorrect as it represents the conversion of 30 milliliters. Choice D (3.3 liters) is also incorrect as it is not the correct conversion of 300 milliliters.

3. Square: A garden bed has a side length of 8 meters. What is its perimeter?

• A. 16m
• B. 24m
• C. 32m
• D. 64m

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The perimeter of a square is found by adding up all four sides. Since all sides of a square are equal in length, the perimeter is calculated by multiplying the side length by 4. In this case, the side length of the square garden bed is 8 meters. Therefore, the perimeter is 8m x 4 = 32m. Choice A (16m) is incorrect as it represents only half of the perimeter. Choice B (24m) is incorrect because it is the perimeter of a square with a side length of 6 meters, not 8 meters. Choice D (64m) is incorrect as it represents the area of the square, not the perimeter.

4. What is the volume of water needed to fill a rectangular swimming pool with dimensions 10 meters by 5 meters and a depth of 2 meters?

• A. 50 cu m
• B. 100 cu m
• C. 150 cu m
• D. 200 cu m

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To find the volume of the rectangular swimming pool, you need to multiply the length by the width by the depth. Volume = Length x Width x Depth. Therefore, Volume = 10m x 5m x 2m = 100 cubic meters. This means it takes 100 cubic meters of water to fill the pool. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect as they do not correctly calculate the volume based on the provided dimensions.

5. If Kevin can wash 30 cars in 15 minutes, how many minutes will it take him to wash 100 cars?

• A. 50 minutes
• B. 55 minutes
• C. 30 minutes
• D. 45 minutes

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To find out how many minutes Kevin will take to wash 100 cars, set up a proportion: 30 cars is to 15 minutes as 100 cars is to x minutes. Cross multiplying gives 30x = 1500. Solving for x, x = 1500 / 30 = 50. Therefore, it will take Kevin 50 minutes to wash 100 cars. Choice A is correct. Choice B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not correctly calculate the time needed based on the given information.
