Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To calculate 54% of $789.56, you multiply $789.56 by 0.54 (which is the decimal form of 54%). This gives you approximately $426.36. Therefore, the correct answer is A, as it represents 54% of the given amount.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To add the fractions 4/3 and 7/3, combine the numerators: (4 + 7)/3 = 11/3. The sum 11/3 can be expressed as the mixed number 3 2/3. Therefore, the correct answer is A) 3 2/3.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To calculate the number of additional teachers needed, first determine the total number of classes by dividing the total student population by the maximum class size: 6734 students � 25 students = 269.36, rounded up to 270 classes. Then subtract the current number of teachers from the total classes to find the additional teachers required: 270 classes - 217 current teachers = 53 additional teachers needed.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: To determine the largest decimal among the options, you need to compare them by looking at the digits after the decimal point. When comparing 0.6, 0.667, 0.0688, and 0.68, consider that 0.6 is equivalent to 0.600, 0.667 remains 0.667, 0.0688 is already in its most precise form, and 0.68 is the same as 0.680. By comparing them, you can see that 0.68 is the largest decimal among the options provided. Remember, when comparing decimals, it's important to line up the decimal points to make accurate comparisons.
