Compare: 0.045 is _____ to 0.054.
- A. Greater than
- B. Less than
- C. Less than or equal to
- D. Equal
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B. When comparing 0.045 and 0.054, 0.045 is less than 0.054. Therefore, the correct relation is 'Less than.' Choice A ('Greater than') is incorrect because 0.045 is not greater than 0.054. Choice C ('Less than or equal to') is incorrect because 0.045 is strictly less than 0.054, not less than or equal to. Choice D ('Equal') is incorrect because 0.045 and 0.054 are not equal.

What is 20% of 2?
- A. 0.4
- B. 0.2
- C. 0.3
- D. 0.1
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: To find 20% of a number, you multiply the number by 0.20. In this case, 0.20 * 2 = 0.4. Therefore, 0.4 is 20% of 2. Choice A (0.4) is correct. Choice B (0.2) is incorrect because it represents 10% of 2, not 20%. Choice C (0.3) is incorrect as it is not the result of calculating 20% of 2. Choice D (0.1) is incorrect as it represents 5% of 2, not 20%.
The least common multiple (LCM) of two numbers is the smallest number that is a multiple of both. Which of the following represents the LCM of 14 and 21?
- A. 42
- B. 63
- C. 84
- D. 168
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Rationale:
To find the least common multiple (LCM) of 14 and 21, we need to determine the smallest number that is a multiple of both 14 and 21.
First, list the multiples of 14: 14, 28, 42, 56, 70, 84, ...
Next, list the multiples of 21: 21, 42, 63, 84, ...
The smallest number that appears in both lists is 42. Therefore, the LCM of 14 and 21 is 42.
Reduce 5 & 3/4 divided by 1/2.
- A. 5 & 1/2
- B. 2 & 3/8
- C. 18
- D. 11 & 1/2
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: To divide mixed numbers, convert them to improper fractions. 5 & 3/4 = 23/4 and 1/2 = 2/1. So, 23/4 · 2/1 = 23/4 * 1/2 = 23/8 = 2 & 7/8. Therefore, 5 & 3/4 divided by 1/2 reduces to 11 & 1/2. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because they do not represent the correct result of dividing 5 & 3/4 by 1/2.
Convert 104°F to Celsius.
- A. 40°C
- B. 42°C
- C. 39°C
- D. 35°C
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: To convert Fahrenheit to Celsius, you can use the formula: °C = (°F - 32) x 5/9. Plugging in the value, °C = (104 - 32) x 5/9 = 72 x 5/9 = 40°C. Therefore, 104°F is equal to 40°C. Choice A is correct. Choice B is incorrect as it is not the result of the conversion. Choice C is incorrect as it is not the result of the conversion. Choice D is incorrect as it is not the result of the conversion.
Add 7/8 + 9/10 + 6/5. Express the result as a mixed number.
- A. 3 & 39/40
- B. 3 & 22/23
- C. 22/23
- D. 2 & 39/40
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: To add fractions, find a common denominator, which in this case is 40. Convert each fraction to have the common denominator: 7/8 = 35/40, 9/10 = 36/40, and 6/5 = 48/40. Add these fractions to get 119/40. Simplify this improper fraction to a mixed number, which is 3 & 39/40. Choice B and C are incorrect as they do not represent the sum of the fractions. Choice D is incorrect; the whole number part should be 3, not 2.
