7 is divisible by which of the following numbers?
- A. 2 only
- B. 3 only
- C. 1 and 7 only
- D. 2, 3, and 7
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Rationale:
1. 7 is divisible by 1 because every number is divisible by 1.
2. 7 is divisible by 7 because any number is divisible by itself.
3. 7 is not divisible by 2 because 7 is an odd number and not divisible by 2.
4. 7 is not divisible by 3 because the sum of the digits of 7 (7) is not divisible by 3.
Therefore, 7 is divisible by 1, 7, and itself (7), making the correct answer D) 2, 3, and 7.

Convert the decimal 0.98 to a percent.
- A. 98%
- B. 9%
- C. 98
- D. 99%
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: To convert a decimal to a percent, you multiply the decimal by 100. In this case, 0.98 100 = 98%. Therefore, the correct answer is A, which is 98%. Choice B (9%) is incorrect as it results from an error in calculation. Choice C (98) is incorrect as it lacks the percent symbol. Choice D (99%) is incorrect as it is not the equivalent percentage of 0.98.
Convert 26°C to Fahrenheit.
- A. 78°F
- B. 72°F
- C. 80°F
- D. 85°F
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: To convert Celsius to Fahrenheit, the formula F = (9/5)C + 32 is used. Substituting 26°C into the formula: F = (9/5)(26) + 32 = 78.8°F, which rounds to 78°F. Therefore, the correct answer is 78°F. Choice B (72°F), Choice C (80°F), and Choice D (85°F) are incorrect as they do not result from the correct conversion calculation.
Stewart has 56 acres of land. He wants to divide the land into plots of 0.25 acres. How many plots of land will Stewart have after he divides the 56 acres?
- A. 224 plots
- B. 220 plots
- C. 210 plots
- D. 230 plots
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: To find the number of plots, divide 56 acres by 0.25 acres per plot: 56 · 0.25 = 224 plots. Therefore, Stewart will have 224 plots of land after dividing the 56 acres. The correct answer is A because dividing 56 acres by 0.25 acres per plot gives 224 plots, not 220, 210, or 230 plots.
A woman received a bottle of perfume as a present. The bottle contains 1/2 oz of perfume. How many milliliters is this?
- A. 15 mL
- B. 20 mL
- C. 10 mL
- D. 50 mL
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: 1/2 oz of perfume is equal to approximately 15 mL. To convert ounces to milliliters, we need to know that 1 oz is approximately 30 mL. Therefore, half an ounce, which is 1/2 oz, would be half of 30 mL, which equals 15 mL. Choice B, 20 mL, is incorrect as it does not correspond to the conversion factor of 1 oz to 30 mL. Choice C, 10 mL, is incorrect as it is half of the actual value. Choice D, 50 mL, is incorrect as it is the value of 1 oz rather than half an ounce.
What is the result of the expression 4/5 + 6/7?
- A. 1 23/35
- B. 2 5/7
- C. 1 1/7
- D. 1 3/4
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: To add fractions with different denominators, you first need to find a common denominator. In this case, the common denominator for 5 and 7 is 35. Then, convert each fraction to have a denominator of 35. 4/5 becomes 28/35, and 6/7 becomes 30/35. Adding these fractions together gives 58/35, which simplifies to 1 23/35. Therefore, the correct answer is A, 1 23/35. Choice B, 2 5/7, is incorrect because it does not match the correct result. Choice C, 1 1/7, is incorrect as it is not the simplified form of the sum of the fractions. Choice D, 1 3/4, is incorrect as it is a different result and not the sum of 4/5 and 6/7.
