What is 7 1/8 + 2 4/12 equal to?
- A. 9 11/24
- B. 10 1/3
- C. 8 3/8
- D. 7 7/24
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: To add mixed numbers, first convert the fractions to a common denominator. The least common denominator between 8 and 12 is 24. Converting 7 1/8 to 7 3/24 (since 1/8 = 3/24) and 2 4/12 to 2 8/24 (since 4/12 = 8/24), we can add the whole numbers separately to get 9. Then, adding the fractions 3/24 and 8/24 gives 11/24. Therefore, 7 1/8 + 2 4/12 equals 9 11/24. Choice A is correct. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not reflect the correct addition of mixed numbers with the appropriate conversion of fractions.

- Therefore, 12 is classified as an even number.
Find the value of x if x:15=120:225.
- A. x=8
- B. x=10
- C. x=6
- D. x=12
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: To solve x:15=120:225, set it up as a proportion: x/15 = 120/225. Simplify the right-hand side: 120/225 = 8/15. Now, solve for x by cross-multiplying: x = 8. Therefore, the correct answer is A. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not align with the correct calculations.
How many grams are in 4 kilograms?
- A. 4000
- B. 40
- C. 500
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The metric system is based on powers of 10. Since 1 kilogram equals 1000 grams, to convert 4 kilograms to grams, you multiply 4 by 1000. Therefore, 4 kilograms is equal to 4000 grams. Choice B (40) is incorrect because it represents grams in 4 decagrams, not kilograms. Choice C (500) is incorrect as it is the result of 4 hectograms, not kilograms. Choice D (0) is incorrect as it implies there are no grams in 4 kilograms, which is false.
