Q #1: One gallon of cleaning solution requires 10 oz of ammonia. If the maintenance department needs 51 gallons of solution to clean all of the floors, how much ammonia is needed?
A. 510 gallons
B. 51 gallons
C. 510 oz
D. 51 oz
Answer Explanation
We use given information to find how much ammonia is need to make the specified solution.
We are told, one gallon of cleaning solution requires 10 oz of ammonia. Expressing this mathematically yields two options:
\(\frac{10\ oz\ of\ ammonia}{1\ gallon\ of\ solution}\) or \(\frac{1\ gallon\ of\ solution}{10\ oz\ of\ ammonia}\)
Now we find how much ammonia is needed using option two.
\(51\ gallon\ of\ solution\ *\frac{10\ oz\ of\ ammonia}{1\ gallon\ of\ solution}\ =\ 510\ oz\ of\ ammonia\)
From the above equation, gallon of solution will cancel, and oz of ammonia is left.
Therefore, the solution will require 510 oz of ammonia.

Q #2: Which of the following is the greatest value?
A. 74÷95
B. 7/8
C. 0.72
D. 74%
Answer Explanation
To solve this problem, we need to have all options in fraction form.
74
95 = 
7/8 = 3/8
0.72 = 72/100
74% = 74/100
Now, find the least common denominator of 95, 8, and 100. The least common denominator is 3800, which we multiply by each fraction as follows:
74/95*3800=2960
7/8*3800=3325
72/100*3800=2736
74/100*3800=2812
We can see that the fraction 7/8 is the greatest among the given options.

Q #4: Which of the following statements is true about the following graph?
A. The Chargers points per game decreased between seasons five times between 1996 and 2015
B. The Chargers scored their lowest number of points per game in 1999-2000 season
C. The Chargers scored their greatest number of points per game in the 2002-03 season
D. None of the above
Answer Explanation
We analyze the given statement with the graph given as follows:
For option a: the points per game decreased five times between 1996 and 2015. So, the statement is true.
For option b: the lowest points scored per game was in 1998-99 season. So, the statement is false.
For option c: 2008-09 was the season the chargers scored the greatest number of points per game and not 2002-03 as claimed in the statement. So, this statement is not true.

Q #5: As a person climbing a mountain increases walking speed, the rate of calories burned, height traveled, and energy expended also increase. Which of the following is the independent variable?
A. Walking speed
B. Energy
C. Calories
D. Height
Answer Explanation
An independent variable is a change that when modified brings a change in other variables. In this case, the person increases his climbing rate, calories burned, distance traveled and energy used increases. Therefore, the walking speed is the independent variable while other variables are dependent.

Q #6: How may milliliters are there in 2.5 liters?
A. 0.25
B. 250
C. 25
D. 2500
Answer Explanation
We use 1 L =1000 mL to convert between the two units. The conversion options of interconversions are:
And
We want millimeters, use the second option to change L to mL as:
Therefore, 2.5 L is equivalent to 2500 mL.

Q #7: When the marks of a science test are graphed, the distribution of markss is symmetric with the majority of weights centered around a single peak. Which of the following describes the shape of this distribution?
A. Uniform
B. Skewed right
C. Bell-shaped
D. Bimodal
Answer Explanation
In a bell-shaped curve, the data distribution is symmetric around a single peak. The centering of data around a single peak means the mean, mode and median of the test are all equal to each other.

Q #8: A sweater that normally sells for $95 is marked 30% off. Which of the following estimates the sale price of the sweater?
A. $67
B. $30
C. $22
D. $63
Answer Explanation
The selling price of the sweater is marked price less the mark off value.
Mark off value=mark off rate*original price
Mark of value=30% of $95
Mark of value=0.30*$95=$28.50
Now, find the selling price of the sweater
Selling price= marked price-mark off value
Thus, the sweater will be sold for 66.50 after applying a mark off of 30%. The selling price is about $67.
