1. How many ounces are in 2 quarts?

• A. 8 ounces
• B. 16 ounces
• C. 32 ounces
• D. 64 ounces

Correct answer: D

Rationale: To convert quarts to ounces, you need to multiply by 32 (1 quart = 32 ounces). Therefore, 2 quarts x 32 ounces/quart = 64 ounces. Hence, there are 64 ounces in 2 quarts. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because they do not reflect the correct conversion factor from quarts to ounces.

2. A honeycomb cell has six equal sides, each measuring 8mm. What is its perimeter?

• A. 32mm
• B. 40mm
• C. 48mm
• D. 56mm

Correct answer: C

Rationale: To find the perimeter of a shape with equal sides, you multiply the length of one side by the number of sides. In this case, the honeycomb cell has 6 sides, each measuring 8mm. Therefore, the perimeter is calculated as perimeter = number of sides * side length = 6 * 8mm = 48mm. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because they do not correctly calculate the total length around the honeycomb cell with six sides.

3. What is the value of x in the ratio and proportion 0.1:10=x:400?

• A. 5
• B. 4
• C. 50
• D. 25

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To solve the proportion 0.1:10=x:400, first, simplify the left side to 1:100. Then, set up the proportion as 1:100=x:400. Cross multiply to get x = 4. Therefore, the correct answer is B. Choice A (5) is incorrect because it does not match the calculated value of x. Choice C (50) is incorrect as it is not the result of solving the proportion provided. Choice D (25) is incorrect as it does not align with the correct calculation of x.

4. If a helicopter flies at about 80 mph, how long will it take to travel 140 miles?

• A. 1 hour 15 minutes
• B. 1 hour 20 minutes
• C. 1 hour 30 minutes
• D. 1 hour 45 minutes

Correct answer: D

Rationale: To calculate the time it takes to travel a certain distance, we can use the formula Time = Distance / Speed. In this case, the helicopter is flying at 80 mph and needs to travel 140 miles. Therefore, Time = 140 miles / 80 mph = 1.75 hours or 1 hour and 45 minutes. So, the correct answer is D. 1 hour 45 minutes. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect as they do not represent the accurate time it takes for the helicopter to cover the 140-mile distance at 80 mph.

5. In a class of 25 students, 44% are boys. How many boys are there?

• A. 10 boys
• B. 11 boys
• C. 9 boys
• D. 13 boys

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To find the number of boys in the class, calculate 44% of 25 students. 44% of 25 is calculated as follows: 0.44 x 25 = 11 boys. Therefore, there are 11 boys in the class. Choice A, 10 boys, is incorrect as it miscalculates the percentage. Choice C, 9 boys, is incorrect as it is less than 11. Choice D, 13 boys, is incorrect as it is greater than the correct calculation.
