1. What is the result of subtracting 10.012 from 0.120?

• A. 10
• B. 9.892
• C. 10.122
• D. 9.012

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To find the result of subtracting 10.012 from 0.120, you need to subtract the two numbers: 0.120 - 10.012 = -9.892. The correct answer is B, 9.892. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not reflect the correct subtraction operation and result.

2. Express 4/5 as a percent.

• A. 20%
• B. 40%
• C. 50%
• D. 80%

Correct answer: D

Rationale: To convert a fraction to a percentage, you multiply the fraction by 100. To express 4/5 as a percent, you perform the calculation 4/5 * 100 = 80%. Therefore, the correct answer is D, 80%. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect as they do not represent the correct conversion of 4/5 to a percentage.

3. A rectangular bandage measures 5cm by 8cm. What is the area covered by the bandage?

• A. 10cm
• B. 13cm
• C. 40cm^2
• D. 64cm^2

Correct answer: D

Rationale: Rationale: To find the area of a rectangle, you multiply the length by the width. In this case, the length of the bandage is 8cm and the width is 5cm. Area = length x width Area = 8cm x 5cm Area = 40cm^2 Therefore, the area covered by the bandage is 40cm^2.

4. Express 25 as a fraction in lowest terms.

• A. 1⅖
• B. 1½
• C. 1¼
• D.

Correct answer: C

Rationale: To express 25 as a fraction in lowest terms, we write it as 25/1. Then, we simplify the fraction by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 25. This results in 25/1 = 25/25 = 1 as the whole number part and 0 as the fractional part. Thus, 25 can be expressed as 1¼. Choice A (1⅖) is incorrect as it represents 1 and 2/5, which is not equivalent to 25. Choice B (1½) is incorrect as it represents 1 and 1/2, which is also not equivalent to 25. Choice D is empty and does not provide an answer.

5. What is 70% of 65?

• A. 40.5
• B. 45.5
• C. 50
• D. 55

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To find 70% of 65, you multiply 0.7 by 65. Mathematically, 0.7 * 65 = 45.5. Therefore, the correct answer is 45.5. Choice A (40.5) is incorrect because it is not the result of multiplying 0.7 by 65. Choice C (50) is incorrect as it is higher than the correct answer. Choice D (55) is also higher than the correct result and is therefore incorrect.
