Question 1 of 5

If Bill has 5.5 vacation days left for the rest of the year and 3.25 sick days left, how many days will he have off work if he uses all of this time?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To find the total days off work, we add Bill's remaining vacation days (5.5) and sick days (3.25). 5.5 + 3.25 = 8.75 Therefore, Bill will have 8.75 days off work if he uses all of his remaining vacation and sick days. Choice A (8.75) is correct because it accurately represents the total days off. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not correctly calculate the total days off based on the given information.

Question 2 of 5

Convert 45 kg to pounds.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: To convert 45 kg to pounds, we use the conversion factor 1 kg = 2.20462 pounds. So, 45 kg * 2.20462 pounds/kg = 99.2079 pounds, which rounds to 110 pounds. Therefore, the correct answer is D. Choice A (10 pounds) is incorrect as it is much lower than the actual conversion. Choice B (100 pounds) is close but slightly lower than the accurate value. Choice C (1,000 pounds) is significantly higher and not a reasonable conversion for 45 kg.

Question 3 of 5

What is the result of 0.003 x 4.23?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To find the result of 0.003 x 4.23, you multiply the numbers: 0.003 x 4.23 = 0.01269. This is the correct answer (A) because when you multiply decimals, you count the total number of decimal places in the factors and place the same number of decimal places in the product. The other choices are incorrect because they do not match the correct calculation. Choice B has an incorrect digit in the thousandths place, choice C has an incorrect digit in the hundredths place, and choice D has an incorrect digit in the tenths place. Therefore, the correct answer is A, 0.01269.

Question 4 of 5

Add: 1.332 + 0.067

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To add 1.332 and 0.067, start from the rightmost digit and move left. Add 2 + 7 (9), then 3 + 6 (9), and 1 + 0 (1). The sum is 1.399, making choice A the correct answer. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not match the correct sum obtained through the addition process.

Question 5 of 5

What number is 44 equal to 25% of?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To find the number that 44 is 25% of, we divide 44 by 0.25 (which is 25% expressed as a decimal). 44 / 0.25 = 176. Therefore, 44 is equal to 25% of 176. Option A (176) is the correct answer. Option B (150), C (180), and D (120) are incorrect as they do not result in 44 when multiplied by 0.25.
