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. If John buys 3 bags of chips for $4.50, how much will it cost John to buy five bags of chips?

• A. $7.50
• B. $6.00
• C. $5.00
• D. $4.00

Correct answer: A

Rationale: If 3 bags of chips cost $4.50, then the cost per bag is $4.50/3 = $1.50. To buy five bags, John would need to pay 5 bags * $1.50 = $7.50. Therefore, it will cost John $7.50 to buy five bags of chips. The other choices are incorrect because they do not accurately calculate the total cost based on the given information.

3. A hospital receives a shipment of vitamin tablets. The hospital ordered 6,000 tablets, but the shipment included 1/5 more tablets than the hospital ordered. How many tablets were in the shipment?

• A. 7,200 tablets
• B. 5,000 tablets
• C. 6,500 tablets
• D. 8,000 tablets

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To find the total tablets in the shipment, first, calculate 1/5 of 6,000: 6,000 * 1/5 = 1,200. Add this to the original order: 6,000 + 1,200 = 7,200 tablets. Therefore, the shipment included 7,200 tablets. Choice B, 5,000 tablets, is incorrect because it does not account for the additional 1/5 of the original order. Choice C, 6,500 tablets, is incorrect as it only considers the original order and not the extra tablets. Choice D, 8,000 tablets, is incorrect as it overestimates the total by not considering the 1/5 more tablets included in the shipment.

4. What number is 98 175% of?

• A. 48
• B. 52
• C. 54
• D. 56

Correct answer: D

Rationale: To find the number that 98 is 175% of, we can set up the equation: x = 1.75 * x. By solving this equation, we get x = 56. Therefore, 98 is 175% of 56. Choice D, 56, is the correct answer as it represents the number that satisfies the given condition. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect as they do not result in 98 when multiplied by 1.75.

5. Add: 1.332 + 0.067

• A. 1.399
• B. 1.4
• C. 1.402
• D. 1.5

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To find the sum of 1.332 and 0.067, add the two numbers correctly: 1.332 + 0.067 = 1.399. Therefore, the correct answer is A. Choice B (1.4) is incorrect because it rounds down the sum, not considering the precise value. Choice C (1.402) is incorrect as it results from adding 1.332 and 0.070 instead of 0.067. Choice D (1.5) is not the correct sum of the given numbers.
