    • 1 km

    • 2 km

    • 3 km

    • 4 km

    • 5 km

    Correct Answer
    A. 5 km

    • 6

    • 10

    • 16

    • 20

    • 30

    Correct Answer
    A. 20
    Explanation
    In the given equation, 73 - 27 equals 46. The right side of the equation is 26 plus a missing number. To find the missing number, we subtract 26 from 46, which gives us 20. Therefore, the missing number is 20.

    You get a wage increase of 6% plus an extra £5 per week. Your present wages are £250 per week. What will your new wage be?

    • £260

    • £265

    • £270

    • £275

    • £280

    Correct Answer
    A. £270
    Explanation
    Based on the information given, the question states that the wage increase is 6% plus an additional £5 per week. To calculate the new wage, we first need to find 6% of £250, which is £15. Then we add the additional £5 per week. So the total increase is £15 + £5 = £20. Adding this increase to the present wage of £250, we get £250 + £20 = £270. Therefore, the new wage will be £270.

    Which company's sales were most consistent throughout the year? - ProProfs

    Which company's sales were most consistent throughout the year?

    • Hole in Roof

    • Hot House

    • Stones´ Thow

    • Leaky Windows

    • Frying Tonight

    Correct Answer
    A. Hole in Roof
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Hole in Roof". This can be inferred from the fact that the question asks for the company whose sales were most consistent throughout the year. Since a "hole in the roof" implies a constant leakage, it can be assumed that the company's sales were consistently low throughout the year.

    If oranges cost 5 for 75p how many can you buy for £2.80? (Assuming they can be bought singly)

    • 15

    • 16

    • 17

    • 18

    • 19

    Correct Answer
    A. 18
    Explanation
    If oranges cost 5 for 75p, it means that each orange costs 15p (75p divided by 5). To find out how many oranges can be bought for £2.80, we divide £2.80 by 15p. £2.80 divided by 15p equals 18.67, which means that you can buy 18 oranges with £2.80. Since you cannot buy a fraction of an orange, the answer is 18.

    A car left Canterbury at 7.14 am and arrived in Birmingham, 180 miles distant at 10.59 am. What was its average speed in miles per hour?

    • 42

    • 44

    • 46

    • 48

    • 50

    Correct Answer
    A. 48
    Explanation
    The car traveled a distance of 180 miles in a time span of 3 hours and 45 minutes. To find the average speed, we divide the total distance by the total time. Converting the time to hours, we have 3 hours and 45 minutes equal to 3.75 hours. Therefore, the average speed of the car is 180 miles divided by 3.75 hours, which equals 48 miles per hour.

    A cube has a volume of 8 cubic meters. If each side is doubled in length what will its new volume be in cubic meters?

    • 16

    • 32

    • 48

    • 64

    • 128

    Correct Answer
    A. 64
    Explanation
    When each side of a cube is doubled in length, its new volume is calculated by multiplying the original volume by 2 cubed (2^3). Since the original volume is 8 cubic meters, multiplying it by 2^3 gives us 64 cubic meters. Therefore, the new volume of the cube is 64 cubic meters.

    If the average price of each PC sold by Manufacturer 2 over all 5 months was £70 what was the total Income of that manufacturer in observed period? - ProProfs

    If the average price of each PC sold by Manufacturer 2 over all 5 months was £70 what was the total Income of that manufacturer in observed period?

    • £1,147,500

    • £1,177,80O

    • £1,218,000

    • £2,365,500

    • £3,543,300

    Correct Answer
    A. £1,218,000
    Explanation
    The total income of Manufacturer 2 in the observed period can be calculated by multiplying the average price of each PC sold (£70) by the total number of PCs sold. Since the average price is given, we can assume that the total number of PCs sold is constant throughout the 5 months. Therefore, the total income can be calculated as £70 multiplied by the total number of PCs sold in the observed period. The correct answer of £1,218,000 implies that Manufacturer 2 sold a total of 17,400 PCs (£1,218,000 ÷ £70 = 17,400).

    What is her approximate Return on Sales (ROS = Net Income/Sales)? - ProProfs

    What is her approximate Return on Sales (ROS = Net Income/Sales)?

    • 0, 5 %

    • 0, 7 %

    • 5 %

    • 7 %

    • 50 %

    Correct Answer
    A. 0, 5 %
    Explanation
    Her approximate Return on Sales (ROS) is 0.5%. This means that for every dollar of sales, she is earning 0.5 cents in net income. ROS is a profitability ratio that measures the company's ability to generate profits from its sales. A higher ROS indicates better profitability, while a lower ROS indicates lower profitability. In this case, her ROS is relatively low at 0.5%, suggesting that her net income is only a small portion of her sales.
