Question 1 of 5

What would be the total cost to buy 5 bars of soap if one bar of soap costs $0.96?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: To find the total cost of purchasing 5 bars of soap, multiply the cost of one bar of soap by the number of bars. If one bar costs $0.96, then 5 bars would cost $0.96 x 5 = $4.80. Therefore, the correct answer is $4.80. Option A, $3.30, is incorrect as it does not result from the correct multiplication. Option B, $3.80, is also incorrect as it does not reflect the total cost of 5 bars. Option C, $4.30, is incorrect as it does not represent the accurate total cost of purchasing 5 bars of soap.

Question 2 of 5

A triangular scarf has sides measuring 10cm, 12cm, and 15cm. What is its perimeter?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Rationale: The perimeter of a triangle is the sum of the lengths of its three sides. In this case, the sides of the triangular scarf measure 10cm, 12cm, and 15cm. Therefore, the perimeter is calculated as: Perimeter = 10cm + 12cm + 15cm Perimeter = 37cm Therefore, the correct answer is B) 32cm.

Question 3 of 5

Temperature Conversion & Interpretation: A patient's body temperature is 102�F. Convert this to �C and assess if it indicates a fever.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Rationale: 1. To convert Fahrenheit to Celsius, you can use the formula: �C = (�F - 32) x 5/9. 2. Given that the patient's body temperature is 102�F, we can calculate the equivalent temperature in Celsius: �C = (102 - 32) x 5/9 �C = 70 x 5/9 �C = 350/9 �C ≈ 38.9�C, which can be rounded to 39�C. 3. A body temperature of 39�C is considered to indicate a fever. Normal body temperature typically ranges from 36.1�C to 37.2�C, so a temperature of 39�C is higher than the normal range and suggests a fever. 4. Options A and B are incorrect as they do not reflect the conversion of 102�F to �C

Question 4 of 5

Multiply: 52 04 =

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: To multiply 52 by 04, you first multiply the two numbers together: 52 x 4 = 208. Since there are two decimal places in the expression, you need to divide the result by 100, which gives you 0.0208. Therefore, the correct answer is B. Choice A (0.00208) is incorrect because it represents a much smaller value obtained by considering the decimal incorrectly. Choice C (0.208) is incorrect because it does not account for the decimal placement. Choice D (2.08) is incorrect as it does not consider the requirement to convert the result into decimal form.

Question 5 of 5

A plan for a house is drawn on a 1:40 scale. If the length of the living room on the plan measures 5 inches, what is the actual length of the built living room?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Since the scale of the plan is 1:40, this means that 1 inch on the plan represents 40 inches in reality. Therefore, the actual length of the living room can be calculated as 5 inches on the plan multiplied by the scale factor of 40, which equals 200 inches. Converting 200 inches to feet gives us 15 feet as the actual length of the built living room. Choice A (45 feet) is incorrect because it miscalculates the conversion from inches to feet. Choice B (25 feet) is incorrect as it does not consider the scale factor provided. Choice D (12 feet) is incorrect as it does not apply the correct scale factor to convert the plan's measurements to reality.
