Karen goes to the grocery store with $40. She buys a carton of milk for $1.85, a loaf of bread for $3.20, and a bunch of bananas for $3.05. How much money does she have left?
- A. $30.95
- B. $31.90
- C. $32.10
- D. $34.95
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: To determine how much money Karen has left, we first calculate the total cost of the items she bought: $1.85 + $3.20 + $3.05 = $8.10. Subtracting this total cost from the initial amount she had, $40 - $8.10 = $31.90 left. Choice A, $30.95, is incorrect as it does not reflect the correct amount left after subtracting the total cost. Choice C, $32.10, is incorrect as it is the total cost of the items she bought, not the amount left. Choice D, $34.95, is incorrect as it does not consider the expenses incurred and subtracted from the initial amount.
Solve for x: 7:42 :: 4:x
- A. 16
- B. 24
- C. 48
- D. 12
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: To solve this proportion, set up the equation: 7/42 = 4/x. Cross-multiply to get 7x = 168. Solve for x by dividing both sides by 7, yielding x = 24. Therefore, the correct answer is 24. Choice A (16), Choice C (48), and Choice D (12) are incorrect as they do not satisfy the proportion 7:42 :: 4:x.
A bookshelf has triangular shelves with a base of 40cm and a height of 30cm. The depth of the shelf is 25cm. What is the volume of each shelf?
- A. 3000 cu cm
- B. 3750 cu cm
- C. 5000 cu cm
- D. 7500 cu cm
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: To find the volume of the triangular shelf, first calculate the area of the triangle (1/2 * base * height) which is (1/2 * 40 * 30) = 600 sq cm. Then, multiply this area by the depth of the shelf (600 * 25) = 15000 cu cm. Therefore, the volume of each shelf is 3750 cu cm. Choice A, C, and D are incorrect as they do not correctly calculate the volume based on the dimensions provided.
Convert the decimal to a percent: 0.000026
- A. 0.0026%
- B. 0.026%
- C. 2.6%
- D. 26%
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: To convert a decimal to a percent, you multiply by 100. In this case, 0.000026 * 100 = 0.0026%. Therefore, the correct answer is A: 0.0026%. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because they incorrectly place the decimal point, resulting in percentages that are too large.
A healthcare professional works in a military hospital from 1300 to 2000. What time of day does this healthcare professional work?
- A. Early morning to early afternoon
- B. Lunchtime to midnight
- C. Early afternoon to bedtime
- D. Midnight to sunrise
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The shift from 1300 (1:00 PM) to 2000 (8:00 PM) corresponds to early afternoon to bedtime. Therefore, the correct answer is C, as this healthcare professional works during the early afternoon to bedtime hours. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because the work hours fall within the early afternoon to evening time frame, not early morning, lunchtime, or midnight to sunrise.
