  1. If a base camp consumes 450 litres of water per day, how many litres are needed for a 2-week deployment?

    Answer: 6,300 litres

    2 weeks = 14 days; 450 litres × 14 = 6,300 litres.

  2. Which of the following fractions is the largest?

    Answer: 7/8

    Converting to decimals: 7/8 = 0.875, 3/4 = 0.75, 5/6 ≈ 0.833, 2/3 ≈ 0.667 — so 7/8 is the largest.

  3. A perimeter fence is needed around a square area with sides of 75 m each. What is the total length of fencing required?

    Answer: 300 m

    Perimeter of a square = 4 × side length = 4 × 75 m = 300 m.

  4. Solve: 144 ÷ 12 + 5 × 3 = ?

    Answer: 27

    Following BEDMAS: 144 ÷ 12 = 12; 5 × 3 = 15; 12 + 15 = 27.

  5. If a helicopter flies at 240 km/h and needs to cover 60 km, how many minutes will the flight take?

    Answer: 15 minutes

    Time = distance ÷ speed = 60 ÷ 240 = 0.25 hours = 0.25 × 60 = 15 minutes.

  6. What is the missing number? 18, 15, 12, 9, ___

    Answer: 6

    The sequence decreases by 3 each time: 9 − 3 = 6.
