A recipe calls for 6 teaspoons of vanilla. 1 teaspoon equals approximately 4.93 mL. Which of the following is the correct amount of vanilla in mL?
A. 34.33 mL
B. 29.58 mL
C. 25.59 mL
D. 12.32 mL
To find the amount of vanilla in mL, we set up an equation in a way the unwanted units cancel out and leave the wanted unit we are looking for. Then,
Thus, a recipe of 6 teaspoons equals 29.58 mL.
Therefore, the Correct Answer is B.

Q #2: Simplify the expression below. Which of the following is correct? \(\frac{[3 (2 + 6 \ast 4)]}{(26 \div 2)}\)
A. 6
B. 8
C. 12
D. 9
Answer Explanation
We follow the order of operations to solve the given expression.
First, we start with the numerator and solve it as follows
[3(2+6*4)]
We start with multiplication in inner brackets, 6*4=24. The expression becomes
[3(2+24)]
Then, we conduct the addition of 2+24=26. Then, the expression becomes
[3(26)]=3*26=78
Now, we solve for denominator, which is 26/2=13.
Thus, the expression is reduced into
\(\frac{[3(2+6\ast4)]}{(26\div2)}=\frac{78}{13}=6\)
The expression reduces into 6.

Q #3: Which of the following is the mean of the test scores listed below? 80, 68, 74, 87, 96
A. 80
B. 78
C. 96
D. 81
Answer Explanation
the mean of a data set is the total scores divided by the number of tests.
Total test scores =80+68+74+87+96=405
Number of tests =5
Mean test score =405/5=81
The mean test score is 81.

Q #4: Which of the following is the median of the date set below? 9, -7, 1, -4, 3
A. -7
B. 1
C. 3
D. -4
Answer Explanation
The median of a data set is determined by arranging the numbers in ascending orders, and the median is the number the falls in the middle position.
-7, -4, 1, 3, 9
There are five numbers in the data set, and the median falls in the third position from either side. Thus, 1 fall in the third position.

Q #5: -2/9, -0.9, -1.7, -4/7 Of the number listed above, which number is the greatest?
A. -0.9
B. -4/7
C. -1.7
D. -2/9
Answer Explanation
The initial step is to convert the decimal options to fractions. Then, we find the LCM of the denominators of all fractions, which will be used to compare the values of the given options.
-0. becomes -9/10
-1.7 becomes -17/10
Then, the resulting denominators are 9, 10, and 63. Their LCM of 630 is used to multiply each fraction.
-2/9*630=-140
-9/10*630=-567
-17/10*630=-1071
-4/7*630=-360
From the calculations above, -140 is the greatest value of all the values. Thus, -2/9 is the greatest number.

Q #6: Soft Drinks Orange Two 24-packs for $15; one 24-pack for $9 Root Beer One 24-pack for $14 Cream Soda One 12-pack for $3 A consumer needs to purchase at least 50 soft drinks for a picnic. Which of the following combinations is the most cost-effective?
A. 2 two-24 packs of Orange and 1 pack of Cream Soda
B. 3 one 24-pack of Orange
C. 2 packs of Root Beer and 1 pack of Cream Soda
D. 5 packs of cream Soda
Answer Explanation
To find the cheapest option, we find the expenditure on each given option.:
2 two-24 packs of Orange and 1 pack of Cream Soda=2($15)+$3=$33
3 one 24-pack of Orange=3($9)=$27
2 packs of Root Beer and 1 pack of Cream Soda=2($14)+$3=$31
5 packs of cream Soda=5($3)=$15
Spending 5 packs of cream soda is the cost-effective option.

Q #7: A circle has an area of 64π in2. Which of the following is the circumference of the circle in terms of pi ( π)?
A. 9 π in
B. 16 π in
C. 4 π in
D. 8 π in
Answer Explanation
we need determine the radius of the circle before we can find the circumference of the circle from the given area.
Let r be the radius of the circle, then
Substituting the value of area
Dividing both sides by pi and taking square root on both sides yields
Now, the radius of the circle is 8 in. and the circumference of the circle is given by the relation:

Q #8: Which of the following values is the greatest?
A. 3/8
B. 6.25
C. 10/7
D. 7.4
Answer Explanation
To find the greatest number from the given options, convert the decimal numbers into fractions.
6.25 becomes 625/100
7.4 becomes 74/10
The LCM for the denominators of 8, 100, 7, and 10 is 2800. Now we can multiply each fraction with the LCM.
3/8*2800=1050
625/100*2800=17500
10/7*2800=4000
74/10*2800=20720
The fraction 7.4 is the greatest of all.

Q #9: Which of the following is the value of x in the equation below
A. x= -4/3 or x=2
B. x= -1 or x=2
C. x =-2 or x= 1
D. x= -3/2 or x= 1/2
Answer Explanation
we find the value of x by applying the absolute conditions to the given equation.
First, add 2 to both sides of equation
Add 10 to both sides of the equation
Next, we apply the absolute rule:
If u=a
, a>0, then u=a or u=-aIn this case a=5, which is greater 0.
The first condition becomes
Solving for x
The second condition becomes
Solving for x
Then, the value of x is -4/3 or 2.
