1. What is the value of the sum of 3/4 and 5/8?
- A. 1 3/8
- B. 1 1/2
- C. 1 7/8
- D. 1 5/8
Correct answer: D
Rationale: To find the sum of fractions, they need to have a common denominator. In this case, the common denominator is 8. So, 3/4 = 6/8. Adding 6/8 and 5/8 gives 11/8, which simplifies to 1 3/8. Therefore, the correct answer is 1 3/8, which corresponds to choice A. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not represent the correct sum of 3/4 and 5/8.
2. Prizes are to be awarded to the best pupils in each class of an elementary school. The number of students in each grade is shown in the table, and the school principal wants the number of prizes awarded in each grade to be proportional to the number of students. If there are twenty prizes, how many should go to fifth-grade students? Grade 1 2 3 4 5 Students 35 38 38 33 36
- A. 5
- B. 4
- C. 7
- D. 3
Correct answer: C
Rationale: To determine how many prizes should be awarded to 5th-grade students, we need to set up the proportion of the number of 5th-grade students to the total number of students in the school. The total number of students is 35 + 38 + 38 + 33 + 36 = 180 students. To find the proportion of 5th-grade students, it would be 36/180 = 0.2. Since there are 20 prizes to be awarded, multiplying 0.2 by 20 gives us 4, which means 4 prizes should go to the 5th-grade students. Therefore, the correct answer is 4. Choice A (5) is incorrect as it does not align with the proportional distribution. Choice B (4) is the correct answer, as calculated. Choice C (7) is incorrect as it exceeds the total number of prizes available. Choice D (3) is incorrect as it does not match the proportional distribution based on the number of students.
3. If a train travels 60 miles per hour for 2 hours, how far does the train travel?
- A. 60 miles
- B. 100 miles
- C. 120 miles
- D. 200 miles
Correct answer: C
Rationale: To find the distance traveled by the train, we use the formula Distance = Speed x Time. Given that the train travels at 60 miles per hour for 2 hours, the calculation would be 60 miles/hour x 2 hours = 120 miles. Therefore, the correct answer is 120 miles. Choice A (60 miles) is incorrect because it only represents the speed of the train, not the total distance traveled. Choice B (100 miles) is incorrect as it does not account for the full 2 hours of travel. Choice D (200 miles) is incorrect as it overestimates the distance by multiplying the speed by the time incorrectly.
4. Solve for x: 3(x + 4) = 18
- A. x = 2
- B. x = 4
- C. x = 6
- D. x = 8
Correct answer: C
Rationale: To solve the equation 3(x + 4) = 18, first distribute the 3 to both terms inside the parentheses: 3x + 12 = 18. Next, isolate the variable x by subtracting 12 from both sides: 3x = 6. Finally, divide by 3 to solve for x, giving x = 6. Choice A, x = 2, is incorrect as the correct solution is x = 6. Choices B (x = 4) and D (x = 8) are also incorrect as they do not satisfy the given equation.
5. How many gallons are in 1,000 fluid ounces?
- A. 7.8125 gallons
- B. 15.625 gallons
- C. 31.25 gallons
- D. 62.5 gallons
Correct answer: A
Rationale: To convert fluid ounces to gallons, you need to divide the number of fluid ounces by the number of fluid ounces in a gallon. Since there are 128 fluid ounces in a gallon, to find out how many gallons are in 1,000 fluid ounces, you divide 1,000 by 128. The correct calculation is 1,000 / 128 = 7.8125 gallons. Therefore, the correct answer is A. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not accurately represent the conversion from fluid ounces to gallons.
