A. 110 kg
B. 2.20 kg
C. 50 kg
D. 100 kg
We two conversions when asked to convert between kg and lb
And
We need kg equivalent of 220 lb, therefore we use option 1 and carry out the conversions as follows:
Thus, 100kg is equal to 220lb.
Therefore, the Correct Answer is D.

Q #1: A farmer is planning for a growing season and want to know the trend in amount of rainfall in his area. He obtains rainfall falling in the first 5 months of the year as shown in the above table. Which of the following would best display the data? Month January February March April May Rainfall (mm) 20 6 14 28 34
A. Scatter plot
B. Pie chart
C. Line graph
D. Bar graph
Answer Explanation
Based rainfall falling for the first 5 months, a bar graph will give a great display for the farmer to decide when start planting. The horizontal scale will represent months of the year and vertical scale will present the amount of rainfall falling.

Q #2: A circle has an area of 9 (pi) in2. Which of the following is the circumference of the circle in terms of pi ((pi))?
A. 12 π in
B. 6 π in
C. 9 π in
D. 3 π in
Answer Explanation
We need to find the radius of the circle from the given value of area. Then, the radius of the circle will be used to find the circumference of the circle.
The first step is to find the radius, r of the circle as
Thus, the circumference of a circle whose area is \(9\pi\ in\ ^2\)is 6

Q #3: 3 (x-2) = 18 Solve the equation above for x. Which of the following is the correct answer?
A. 8
B. -5
C. 7
D. 4
Answer Explanation
We solve for the value of x by following the order of operations
3(x-2)=15
Divide both sides of the equation by 3
Add 2 to both sides of the equation
Thus, the value of x is 8.

Q #4: An athlete runs 7 miles in 45 minutes and then changes their pace to run the next 3 miles in 15 minutes. Overall, what is the average time in minutes it takes the athlete to run 1 mile?
A. 9.5 minutes
B. 9 minutes
C. 6 minutes
D. 10minutes
Answer Explanation
to find the average time the athlete runs in 1 mile; we find total distance and total time the athlete takes in running.
Total distance run by athlete=7+3=10 miles
Total time=45+15 =60 minutes
The athlete runs 10 miles in 60 minutes. For the athlete to cover 1 mile, he will run for a time less than 60 minutes. Thus, in 1 mile, the athlete takes:
So, in 6 minutes, the athlete covers 1 mile.

Q #5: A large pizza has a diameter of 12 inches. Which of the following is the area of the pizza in terms of pi ()?
A. 24 πi n2
B. 48 π in2
C. 18π in2
D. 36 π in2
Answer Explanation
Before finding the area of the pizza, we need to find the radius of the pizza.
Find radius of the pizza in terms of diameter
Next, find area of the pizza using the radius of 6 inches
Substituting r=6 in the equation of the area of a circle
Thus, the pizza has an area of 36 π in2.

Q #6: Which of the following values is the greatest?
A. 7/3
B. 5.2
C. 13/3
D. 5.15
Answer Explanation
The initial step is to convert the decimal numbers into fractions.
5.2 becomes 52/10
5.15 becomes 515/100
Next, find the least common denominator of 3, 10, and 100, which is 300. We use this value and multiply each fraction.
7/3*300=700
52/10*300=1560
13/3*300=1300
515/100*300=1545
From the above, 1560 is the greatest value which corresponds to 52/10. Thus, 5.2 is the greatest value of all the choices given.

Q #7: If x represents the width of a rectangle and length is four less than three times the width, which of the following expressions represents the length of the rectangle in terms of x?
A. 4 - 3x
B. 3 - 4x
C. 4x - 3
D. 3x - 4
Answer Explanation
To form an equation from the word problem, first break the given statement into smaller statements.
First, we are given the width of the rectangle as x. We are told, the length is three times width. Mathematically, this means
Length=3*width=3*x=3x
Again, the length is 4 less than 3 times width of the rectangle. Thus, the length of rectangle in terms of width becomes:
Length =3x-4
This is the required equation.

Q #8: A couple dining at a restaurant receives a bill for $58.60. They wish to leave a 16% gratuity. Which of the following is the estimated gratuity?
A. $8.48
B. $6.40
C. $9.38
D. $7.00
Answer Explanation
In this problem, we need to find the amount of gratuity the couple will leave. The gratuity is 16% of the total bill. Before solving the problem, the following are terms and their meaning in percent problems:
- Is means equals
- Of means multiply
- What means unknown (variable)
If we let x be the amount of gratuity, then translating the given problem into a mathematical equation becomes:
Now we evaluate the above equation noting that of means multiply.
So, the value of x=9.376 and to the nearest cent, x=9.38
There, a couple will leave a gratuity of $9.38.

Q #9: 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.
