Question 1: A container holds 3.6 liters of juice. If it is poured equally into 8 glasses, how many milliliters does each glass contain?
- 40 mL
- 360 mL
- 450 mL (Correct answer)
- 480 mL
Correct answer: 450 mL
3.6 liters = 3,600 mL; 3,600 ÷ 8 = 450 mL per glass.
Question 2: What is the greatest common factor (GCF) of 36 and 48?
- 6
- 9
- 12 (Correct answer)
- 18
Correct answer: 12
The largest number that divides both 36 and 48 evenly is 12.
Question 3: If the ratio of boys to girls in a class is 3:5 and there are 24 boys, how many girls are there?
- 30
- 35
- 40 (Correct answer)
- 45
Correct answer: 40
If 3 parts = 24 boys, then 1 part = 8; girls = 5 × 8 = 40.
Question 4: A circular pizza has a diameter of 14 inches. What is the area of the pizza? (Use π ≈ 3.14)
- 43.96 in²
- 87.92 in²
- 153.86 in² (Correct answer)
- 615.44 in²
Correct answer: 153.86 in²
Radius = 7 in; Area = π × r² = 3.14 × 49 ≈ 153.86 in².
Question 5: Which of the following represents the number 4,302,015 in expanded form?
- 4,000,000 + 300,000 + 2,000 + 15
- 4,000,000 + 300,000 + 20,000 + 15
- 4,000,000 + 302,000 + 15
- 4,000,000 + 300,000 + 2,000 + 10 + 5 (Correct answer)
Correct answer: 4,000,000 + 300,000 + 2,000 + 10 + 5
4,302,015 = 4,000,000 + 300,000 + 2,000 + 10 + 5.
Question 6: A savings account earns simple interest at 5% per year. If $400 is deposited, how much interest is earned after 3 years?
- $40
- $50
- $60 (Correct answer)
- $70
Correct answer: $60
Simple Interest = P × r × t = 400 × 0.05 × 3 = $60.
Question 7: A line graph shows sales of 120 in January, 150 in February, and 90 in March. What is the mean monthly sales for these three months?
- 110
- 120 (Correct answer)
- 130
- 150
Correct answer: 120
Mean = (120 + 150 + 90) ÷ 3 = 360 ÷ 3 = 120.
