1. How many milliliters (mL) are there in a liter?

• A. 1000 mL
• B. 100 mL
• C. 10 mL
• D. 1 mL

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: 1000 mL. This is a standard conversion in the metric system where 1 liter is equivalent to 1000 milliliters. Choice B, 100 mL, is incorrect as it represents only a tenth of a liter. Choice C, 10 mL, is incorrect as it represents only a hundredth of a liter. Choice D, 1 mL, is significantly less than a liter, as it is only a thousandth of a liter.

2. Given the double bar graph shown below, which of the following statements is true?

• A. Group A is negatively skewed, while Group B is approximately normal.
• B. Group A is positively skewed, while Group B is approximately normal.
• C. Group A is approximately normal, while Group B is negatively skewed.
• D. Group A is approximately normal, while Group B is positively skewed.

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B. In a double bar graph, Group A is positively skewed, meaning its data is clustered on the left and has a tail extending to the right. On the other hand, Group B displays a normal distribution where the data is evenly distributed around the mean. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect as they inaccurately describe the skewness and distribution of the data in Group A and Group B.

3. What is the estimated total amount of money the roommates used to purchase the gift?

• A. $34
• B. $35
• C. $36
• D. $37

Correct answer: C

Rationale: To find the total amount spent by the roommates, you need to add up the individual amounts each roommate contributed. Anna contributed $18, Liz contributed $12, and Jane contributed $6. Adding these amounts together gives us $18 + $12 + $6 = $36. Therefore, the correct answer is $36. Option A ($34), Option B ($35), and Option D ($37) are incorrect as they do not match the correct calculation of the total amount spent by the roommates.

4. Out of 9 trips, a person chooses the longest route for 3 of them. What percentage of their trips is the longest route?

• A. 0.25
• B. 0.33
• C. 0.5
• D. 0.75

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To find the percentage of trips where the person chose the longest route, divide the number of longest route trips (3) by the total number of trips (9) and multiply by 100. This gives (3/9) * 100 = 33.33%, which can be rounded to 33%. Therefore, the correct answer is B. Choice A (0.25), C (0.5), and D (0.75) are incorrect because they do not accurately represent the percentage of trips where the longest route was chosen based on the given information.

5. A sign stating 'Do Not Enter' is in the shape of a square with side lengths of 75 centimeters. What is the area in square centimeters?

• A. 150
• B. 300
• C. 5,325
• D. 5,625

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The formula for the area of a square is given by the square of its side length: Area = side × side. For this problem, the side length of the square is 75 centimeters. To find the area, you multiply 75 by itself: 75 × 75 = 5,625 square centimeters. Thus, the area of the square is 5,625 cm². This shows that option D is correct. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect as they do not correspond to the correct calculation of the area of a square with a side length of 75 centimeters.
