WorkKeys Graphic Literacy Part 3 Questions and Answers 1 — Questions and Answers
Question 1: A warehouse floor plan shows 4 storage aisles, each 12 feet wide, separated by 3 walkways that are each 4 feet wide. What is the total width of the area from the outer edge of Aisle 1 to the outer edge of Aisle 4?
- 48 feet
- 60 feet (Correct answer)
- 54 feet
- 56 feet
Correct answer: 60 feet
4 aisles × 12 ft = 48 ft for storage space, plus 3 walkways × 4 ft = 12 ft. Total = 48 + 12 = 60 feet.
Question 2: A pressure gauge shows a safe operating range of 40–80 PSI. The current reading is 95 PSI. How many PSI must the pressure drop to reach the top of the safe range?
- 15 PSI (Correct answer)
- 20 PSI
- 55 PSI
- 25 PSI
Correct answer: 15 PSI
The top of the safe range is 80 PSI. Current reading is 95 PSI. 95 − 80 = 15 PSI must be reduced.
Question 3: A bar chart shows weekly output for three teams: Team A = 320 units, Team B = 275 units, Team C = 405 units. What is the average weekly output across all three teams?
- 333 units (Correct answer)
- 350 units
- 360 units
- 325 units
Correct answer: 333 units
Add all three teams: 320 + 275 + 405 = 1,000. Divide by 3 teams: 1,000 ÷ 3 ≈ 333 units.
Question 4: A pipeline diagram shows Pump A delivers 200 GPM and Pump B delivers 150 GPM. A splitter divides the combined flow equally between two output lines. How many GPM flows through each output line?
- 175 GPM (Correct answer)
- 150 GPM
- 200 GPM
- 125 GPM
Correct answer: 175 GPM
Combined flow = 200 + 150 = 350 GPM. Split equally between 2 lines: 350 ÷ 2 = 175 GPM per output line.
Question 5: A shift schedule chart shows the Morning shift runs 6:00 AM–2:30 PM and the Afternoon shift runs 2:30 PM–11:00 PM. How many total hours do both shifts cover combined?
- 17 hours (Correct answer)
- 16.5 hours
- 17.5 hours
- 16 hours
Correct answer: 17 hours
Morning shift: 6:00 AM to 2:30 PM = 8.5 hours. Afternoon shift: 2:30 PM to 11:00 PM = 8.5 hours. 8.5 + 8.5 = 17 hours total.
Question 6: A process flow chart shows a quality inspection with three steps: Step 1 takes 3 minutes, Step 2 takes 5 minutes, Step 3 takes 2 minutes. If 4 items must each complete all three steps, how many total minutes does the entire batch take?
- 40 minutes (Correct answer)
- 32 minutes
- 10 minutes
- 24 minutes
Correct answer: 40 minutes
Each item takes 3 + 5 + 2 = 10 minutes. For 4 items: 4 × 10 = 40 minutes total.
