A bucket can hold 3 L. How many ml can the bucket hold?
A. 3000 mL
B. 300 mL
C. 30 mL
D. 0.003 mL
to change L to mL we use the following options of interconversions:
Or
Since we are needed to change L to mL, use the second option.
Thus, a bucket can hold 3000 mL which is equal to 3 L.
Therefore, the Correct Answer is A.

Q #1: A farmer grows apple, orange, lemon, banana, and pear trees. The number of trees planted this year is shown in table above. Which of the following would best display the data? Tree type Apple Orange Lemon Banana Pear Number of trees 20 10 12 25 21
A. Bar graph
B. Stem and leaf plot
C. Line graph
D. Scatter plot
Answer Explanation
Based on the above data, the horizontal axis will be tree type and vertical axis will represent the number of trees.
Based on these, a bar graph is appropriate to represent the number trees.

Q #2: How may milliliters are there in 0.5 liters?
A. 500
B. 50
C. 5
D. 5000
Answer Explanation
We use 1 L =1000 mL to convert between the two units. The conversion fractions of interconverting are:
And
Since we want to end up with millimeters, the second conversion is used in converting L to mL as:
Thus, 0.5 L is equivalent to 500 mL.

Q #3: A large pizza has a diameter of 16 inches. Which of the following is the area of the pizza in terms of pi (π)?
A. 16 πin2
B. 64 πin2
C. 32πin2
D. 256 πin2
Answer Explanation
We are told to find the area of the pizza given its diameter. The pizza is in circular form, and its area is found as:
However, we are not given r, which is the radius of the circle. But we can find it from the given diameter as
Substituting r=8 in the equation of the area of a circle
Thus, the area of the pizza is 64

(Pi) remains as a symbol because values of Pi can vary from 22/7 to 3.1415 to 3.14 and so forth. -
Q #4: 4(x-5)=8 Solve the equation above for x. Which of the following is the correct answer?
A. ¾
B. 3 ¼
C. -3
D. 7
Answer Explanation
In order to solve for the value of x, we use the order of operations as follows:
The first step is to divide both sides by 4
Since 5 is subtracted, we add 5 to both sides to eliminate it from the left-hand side of the equation
Thus, the value of x is 7.

Q #5: A teacher has asked all the students in the class which days of the week they get up after 8 a.m. Which of the following is the best way to display the frequency of each day of the week?
A. Histogram
B. Scatterplot
C. Pie graph
D. Bar graph
Answer Explanation
The best way to display the frequency of each day of the week when students get up after 8 a.m. is by using a bar graph. Bar graphs are well-suited for representing categorical data, where each day of the week is a separate category, and the height of each bar corresponds to the count or frequency of students waking up late on that specific day.
Note: Histograms, on the other hand, are more appropriate for visualizing continuous or numerical data and are not ideal for categorical data like days of the week. Histograms are useful for understanding the distribution of data, identifying patterns, and assessing the shape of the data distribution, such as whether it's normally distributed, skewed, or has multiple modes.
As you can see below, the Histogram is used to depict a pattern/continuous/range data. While a bar graph does just fine even with discrete data.

Q #6: How many feet are in 6 yards?
A. 9ft
B. 18 ft
C. 36 ft
D. 2 ft
Answer Explanation
here we use the US customary system to convert between yards and feet. We use the conversion 1 yard =3 feet. Then, 6 yards to ft is found as
Thus, 6 yards is equal to 18 ft.

Q #7: Which of the following values is the greatest?
A. 9/2
B. 4.4
C. 10/3
D. 4.25
Answer Explanation
The initial step is to convert the decimal numbers into fractions.
4.4 becomes 44/10
4.25 becomes 425/100
Thus, the set of fractions is 9/2, 44/10, 10/3, 425/100. The least common denominator for 2, 10, 3, and 100 is 300, which we use to compare each options given.
9/2*300=1350
44/10*300=1320
10/3*300=1000
425/100*300=1275
From the above, 1350 is the greatest value which corresponds to 9/2. Thus, 9/2 is the greatest value of all the choices given.

Q #8: A nurse earns $800.00 per week before any tax deductions. The following taxes are deducted each week: $83.00 federal income tax, $38.00 state income tax, and $79.00 Social Security tax. How much will the nurse make in 4 weeks after taxes are deducted?
A. $2,600.00
B. $3,000.00
C. $2,400.00
D. $2,800.00
Answer Explanation
we need to find the net income of the nurse in 4 weeks from the weekly net income.
Weekly net income=gross income-total tax
Total tax=federal income tax+state income tax+Social Security tax
Total tax=$(83.00+38.00+79.00)
Total tax=$200.00
Weekly net income=$(800.00-200.00)=$600.00
In one week, the net income of the nurse is $600.00 and in 4 weeks the nurse will a net income of:
The nurse will earn $2,400.00 in 4 weeks after taxes are deducted.

Q #9: The graph below represents the amount of rainfall in a particular state by month. Which of the following is the total rainfall for the first 3 months of the year?
A. 4 inches
B. 5 inches
C. 4.5 inches
D. 3.5 inches
Answer Explanation
The first three months of the year are January, February, and March. We need to find the total rainfall for these three months from the provided graph.
In the month of January, rainfall is between o and 1, which is halfway. Therefore, rainfall in January is 0.5 inches
On February, rainfall was 1 inch and on March the rainfall was 2 inches. Thus,
Total rainfall = 0.5 inches + 1 inches + 2 inches = 3.5 inches

Q #10: Which of the following is the equivalence in pounds for 50 kg? (2.2 lb =1 kg)
A. 110 lb
B. 220 lb
C. 52.2 lb
D. 22.7 lb
Answer Explanation
We asked to convert kg to pounds. There are two ways of converting between kg and pounds
And
Since we are asked to find pounds, we use the second option for kg to cancel during conversion as follows:
Thus, 50 kg is equal to 110 lb.
