1. Later he spends $20 on bus tokens. How much is left from his original $100?

• A. $49.30
• B. $69.30
• C. $79.30
• D. $89.30

Correct answer: D

Rationale: If he spends $20 on bus tokens from his original $100, then the amount left is $100 - $20 = $80. The remaining 90% of $80 is calculated as $80 + 0.90 * $80 = $80 + $72 = $89.30. Therefore, the correct answer is $89.30. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect as they do not represent the correct calculation of the remaining amount after spending $20.

2. How many milliliters are in 6 liters?

• A. 60 milliliters
• B. 6000 milliliters
• C. 600 milliliters
• D. 0.6 milliliters

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 6000 milliliters. There are 1,000 milliliters in a liter. To convert liters to milliliters, you multiply the number of liters by 1,000. Therefore, 6 liters = 6 × 1,000 = 6,000 milliliters. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not correctly convert liters to milliliters.

3. Change 0.26 to a fraction.

• A. 7/8
• B. 13/50
• C. 26/100
• D. 1/3

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To convert a decimal to a fraction, the decimal is written without the decimal point as the numerator. For 0.26, this gives 26. The denominator is based on the place value of the decimal, which is the number of decimal places the decimal has. In this case, 0.26 has two decimal places, so the fraction is 26/100, which simplifies to 13/50. Choice A (7/8) is incorrect as it does not represent 0.26. Choice C (26/100) is also incorrect because it is not in its simplest form. Choice D (1/3) is incorrect as it is not the correct equivalent fraction for 0.26.

4. Erin has 6.25 peach pies. She gives Rose 3.75 of the peach pies. How many pies does Erin have left?

• A. 2 peach pies
• B. 3 peach pies
• C. 1 peach pie
• D. 2 peach pies

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To find how many pies Erin has left, subtract 3.75 from 6.25: 6.25 - 3.75 = 2.5 peach pies. Erin has 2.5 peach pies left, which rounds down to 2 pies, making choice A the correct answer. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not reflect the correct subtraction result.

5. Which of the following numbers is the largest? (0.667, 0.68, 0.6, 0.0688)

• A. 0.667
• B. 0.68
• C. 0.6
• D. 0.0688

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To determine the largest number among the given decimals, compare them. 0.68 is the largest number as it is greater than 0.667, 0.6, and 0.0688. The correct answer is 0.68 because it has the highest value. The other options are smaller: 0.667 is less than 0.68, 0.6 is less than 0.68, and 0.0688 is significantly smaller than 0.68.
