Round to the nearest whole number: 4748 · 12 =
- A. 372
- B. 384
- C. 396
- D. 412
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: To find the answer, divide 4748 by 12: 4748 · 12 = 395.666... Since we are rounding to the nearest whole number, we round up to 396 because the decimal part (.666) is greater than .5. Choice A (372) is too low as it does not account for the decimal value. Choice B (384) is also too low. Choice D (412) is too high as it goes beyond the correct rounded value.

A newborn weighs 8 pounds 5 ounces. There are 453.59 grams per pound. What is the infant's weight in grams?
- A. A. 2268 grams
- B. B. 3629 grams

Total weight = 3,628.72 + 141.75 = 3,629 grams (rounded).
Therefore, the infant's weight is approximately 3,629 grams.
Choice A, 2268 grams, is incorrect as it does not account for the weight in ounces.
Choice C, 3770 grams, is incorrect as it is not the accurate converted weight.

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.
