Question 1 of 5

Express the number 1906 in Roman numerals.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: MCMVI. Here's the rationale: 1. M represents 1000, CM represents 900, and VI represents 6. 2. Combining these symbols, MCMVI represents 1000 (M) + 900 (CM) + 6 (VI) = 1906. 3. Option A (MCMIV) is incorrect as IV represents 4, not 6. 4. Option C (MDCCCCVI) is incorrect as it uses the subtractive notation excessively (900 + 100 + 100 + 100 + 100 + 5 + 1). 5. Option D (MCMVII) is incorrect as VII represents 7, not 6.

Question 2 of 5

Question 3 of 5

After taking several practice tests, Brian improved the results of his GRE test by 30%. Given that the first time he took the test Brian answered 150 questions correctly, how many questions did he answer correctly on the second test?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: To find out how many questions Brian answered correctly on the second test, we first calculate the 30% increase from his initial score of 150 questions. 30% of 150 is 45, so his new score is 150 + 45 = 195 questions. Therefore, the correct answer is D (195). Choice A (105) is incorrect because it is less than the initial score of 150. Choice B (120) is incorrect because it does not account for the 30% increase. Choice C (180) is incorrect as it is the result of adding 30% to the initial score, not the final score after the increase.

Question 4 of 5

What percent of 36 is 9?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: To find what percent of 36 is 9, we divide 9 by 36: 9/36 = 0.25. To convert this decimal to a percentage, we multiply by 100: 0.25 x 100 = 25%. So, the correct answer is D (10%). Choice A (25%), B (20%), and C (15%) are incorrect as they do not correctly represent the relationship between 9 and 36.

Question 5 of 5

If 9 out of 75 band members missed practice, what percentage of band members missed practice?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: To find the percentage of band members who missed practice, we need to calculate the ratio of band members who missed practice to the total band members. 9 out of 75 band members missed practice, so the ratio is 9/75 = 0.12 or 12%. Therefore, the correct answer is B (12%). Choice A (10%) is incorrect as 9 out of 75 is not equivalent to 10%. Choice C (15%) is incorrect as 9 out of 75 is not equivalent to 15%. Choice D (18%) is incorrect as 9 out of 75 is not equivalent to 18%.
