  1. A rectangle has a perimeter of 24 cm and a length of 8 cm. What is its width?

    Answer: 4 cm

    Perimeter = 2(length + width), so 24 = 2(8 + w), giving 12 = 8 + w, so w = 4 cm.

  2. Which unit is most appropriate for measuring the distance between two cities?

    Answer: Kilometers

    Kilometers are used to express large distances like those between cities, giving practical numbers rather than very large or very small values.

  3. A container holds 750 mL of juice. If you pour out 250 mL, how much remains?

    Answer: 500 mL

    750 mL − 250 mL = 500 mL remaining in the container.

  4. How many days are in 3 weeks?

    Answer: 21

    There are 7 days in a week, so 3 weeks × 7 days = 21 days.

  5. A package weighs 3.2 kg. How many grams is that?

    Answer: 3200 g

    1 kilogram = 1000 grams, so 3.2 kg × 1000 = 3200 grams.

  6. What is the area of a square with a side length of 7 cm?

    Answer: 49 sq cm

    Area of a square = side × side = 7 × 7 = 49 square centimeters.

  7. A recipe calls for 2 cups of flour. If 1 cup = 250 mL, how many mL of flour is needed?

    Answer: 500 mL

    2 cups × 250 mL per cup = 500 mL of flour needed.
