Question 2 of 5

If she had $1,070 after spending $18, how much did she have initially?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To determine the initial amount she had, we subtract the amount spent ($18) from the total amount she had after spending. If she had $1,070 after spending, subtracting $18 gives us $1,052, which was the initial amount. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not consider the subtraction of the amount spent to find the initial amount.

Question 3 of 5

What time is 6:30 A.M. in military time?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Military time uses a 24-hour clock format where the hours range from 00 to 23. In this format, 6:30 A.M. is expressed as 0630. Choice B (6030) and Choice C (1503) are incorrect as they do not follow the 24-hour clock format. Choice D (1530) represents 3:30 P.M., not 6:30 A.M.

Question 4 of 5

A cake recipe calls for 2� cups of flour. How many cups are needed to make 6 cakes?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: To make one cake, you need 2� cups of flour. To make 6 cakes, you would need 6 times the amount of flour for one cake, which is 2� x 6 = 15 cups. Therefore, the correct answer is 15 cups. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect as they do not correctly calculate the total amount of flour needed for 6 cakes.

Question 5 of 5

A child's toy block is a cube with side lengths of 5cm. What is its total surface area?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The surface area of a cube is calculated using the formula: 6 * (side length)^2. Substituting the side length of 5cm into the formula, we get: 6 * (5cm)^2 = 6 * 25cm^2 = 150 sq cm. Therefore, the total surface area of the toy block is 150 sq cm. Choices A (25 sq cm), B (50 sq cm), and C (125 sq cm) are incorrect as they do not correctly calculate the total surface area of the cube.
