Area of a rectangle = length × width = 12 × 8 = 96 square feet.
Question 2: Which fraction is equivalent to 0.75?
- 1/4
- 2/3
- 3/4 (Correct answer)
- 4/5

Question 4: What is the value of the expression 4² + 3²?
- 14
- 25 (Correct answer)
- 49
- 12
Correct answer: 25
4² = 16 and 3² = 9, so 16 + 9 = 25.
Question 5: A number line shows points at –3, 0, and 5. What is the distance between –3 and 5?
- 2
- 5
- 8 (Correct answer)
- 3
Correct answer: 8
Distance = |5 – (–3)| = |5 + 3| = 8.
Question 6: Which of the following is a prime number?
