Question 1: A machine produces 45 parts every 15 minutes. How many parts does it produce in an 8-hour shift?
- 1,440 (Correct answer)
- 1,080
- 960
- 1,800
Correct answer: 1,440
45 parts × 4 (per hour) × 8 hours = 1,440 parts.
Question 2: Convert 3/8 to a decimal.
- 0.375 (Correct answer)
- 0.38
- 0.625
- 0.275
Correct answer: 0.375
3 ÷ 8 = 0.375.
Question 3: A pump moves 250 gallons in 5 minutes. What is its rate in gallons per minute?
- 50 (Correct answer)
- 45
- 55
- 60
Correct answer: 50
250 ÷ 5 = 50 gallons per minute.
Question 4: If a part costs $0.85 and you order 240, what is the total cost?
- $204.00 (Correct answer)
- $192.00
- $224.00
- $210.00
Correct answer: $204.00
0.85 × 240 = $204.00.
Question 5: What is 15% of 320?
- 48 (Correct answer)
- 32
- 45
- 52
Correct answer: 48
0.15 × 320 = 48.
Question 6: A gear turns 5 times for every 2 turns of a second gear. If the first gear makes 35 turns, how many does the second make?
- 14 (Correct answer)
- 12
- 17
- 20
Correct answer: 14
35 ÷ 5 × 2 = 14 turns.
Question 7: Round 6,847 to the nearest hundred.
- 6,800 (Correct answer)
- 6,900
- 6,850
- 6,840
Correct answer: 6,800
The tens digit is 4, so we round down to 6,800.
