    1. Of ten learners, four said they were interested in sport.  What is this as a percentage?

    • 40%

    • 10%

    • 50%

    • 25%

    Correct Answer
    A. 40%
    Explanation
    Out of the ten learners, four of them expressed their interest in sport. To find the percentage, we divide the number of learners interested in sport (4) by the total number of learners (10) and multiply by 100. This gives us (4/10) * 100 = 40%. Therefore, 40% is the correct answer.

    1. Jenny found a bone with mass of 1.4kg. How many grams is this?

    • 14g

    • 140g

    • 1400g

    • 14000g

    Correct Answer
    A. 1400g
    Explanation
    To convert kilograms to grams, we multiply the mass by 1000. Therefore, to convert 1.4kg to grams, we multiply 1.4 by 1000, which gives us 1400g.

    Rate this question:

  • 5. 

      Mark has to take 15ml of medicine twice per day for 7 days. How much medicine does he need?

    • 30ml

    • 140ml

    • 105ml

    • 210ml

    Correct Answer
    A. 210ml
    Explanation
    Mark needs to take 15ml of medicine twice per day for 7 days. To find out how much medicine he needs in total, we need to multiply the amount of medicine he takes per day (15ml) by the number of times he takes it per day (2) and then multiply that by the number of days he takes it (7). So, 15ml x 2 x 7 = 210ml. Therefore, Mark needs 210ml of medicine in total.

    Round off to the nearest thousand:405 294

    • 5000

    • 6000

    • 405000

    • 406000

    Correct Answer
    A. 405000
    Explanation
    The given number, 405,294, needs to be rounded off to the nearest thousand. To do this, we look at the digit in the hundreds place, which is 4. Since this digit is less than 5, we round down. Therefore, the nearest thousand is 405,000.

    • 49

    • 99

    • 110

    • 61

    • 1

    Correct Answer
    A. 99
    Explanation
    The numbers in the given sequence are increasing by 50, 11, 51, and 60 respectively. Therefore, the missing number should be 99, as it follows the pattern of increasing by 50.

    Rate this question:

    What is the remainder when 79 is divided by 6?

    • 1

    • 3

    • 5

    • 7

    Correct Answer
    A. 1
    Explanation
    When 79 is divided by 6, the quotient is 13 and the remainder is 1. This means that 79 can be expressed as 6 times 13 plus 1. Therefore, the remainder when 79 is divided by 6 is 1.

    Rate this question:

  • 10. 

    A box holds 12 eggs. I have 136 eggs. How many boxes do I need to hold all the eggs?

    • 11

    • 12

    • 13

    • 15

    Correct Answer
    A. 12
    Explanation
    To calculate the number of boxes needed to hold all the eggs, divide the total number of eggs (136) by the number of eggs per box (12). This will give the number of boxes required, which is 11. However, since the question asks for the number of boxes needed, we round up to the nearest whole number, which is 12. Therefore, 12 boxes are needed to hold all the eggs.

     Bernard is running from Land’s End to John O’ Groats. The distance is 874 miles. If he runs 25 miles a day, how many days will it take him to run the distance?

    • 36

    • 27

    • 32

    • 35

    • 26

    Correct Answer
    A. 35
    Explanation
    Bernard is running a distance of 874 miles from Land's End to John O' Groats. If he runs 25 miles a day, we can calculate the number of days it will take him to complete the distance by dividing the total distance by the distance he runs each day. Therefore, 874 miles divided by 25 miles/day equals 34.96 days. Since we cannot have a fraction of a day, we round up to the nearest whole number, which is 35. Therefore, it will take Bernard 35 days to run the entire distance.

    • 80%

    • 40%

    Correct Answer
    A. 80%
    Explanation
    The correct answer is 80% because 0.8 can be written as 0.8/1, which is equivalent to 80/100 or 80%.

         What does the digit 3 in 62.13 represent?

    • 3 hundredths

    • 3 tenths

    • 3units

    • 3 tens

    Correct Answer
    A. 3 hundredths
    Explanation
    The digit 3 in 62.13 represents three hundredths. In decimal notation, the digits to the right of the decimal point represent the fraction part of the number. The digit in the hundredths place indicates that there are three equal parts of a whole, where each part is one hundredth.

    Here is a design for garden pond. The scale is 1cm :1m   What will the perimeter of actual pond be? - ProProfs

    1. Here is a design for garden pond. The scale is 1cm :1m
       What will the perimeter of actual pond be?

    • 120mm

    • 30 cm

    • 12cm

    • 12m

    • 52m

    Correct Answer
    A. 12cm
    Explanation
    The perimeter of the actual pond will be 12cm because the scale of 1cm:1m means that for every 1cm on the design, it represents 1m in real life. Therefore, if the design shows a perimeter of 12cm, it means the actual perimeter of the pond will be 12m.

    • (C) 4hours 3o minutes

    • (D) 5 hours 30 minutes

    • (E) 4 hours 45 minutes

    Correct Answer
    A. (B) 5 hours 15 minutes
    Explanation
    Kelly takes 3 times as long as Jane, who takes 1 hour and 45 minutes. To find out how long Kelly takes, we multiply 1 hour and 45 minutes by 3. This gives us 5 hours and 15 minutes, which is the correct answer.

    I have four ribbons measuring 34mm, 55mm, 87mm and 123mm. What is their total length in cm?

    • 0.299cm

    • 1.99cm

    • 2.9cm

    • 29.9cm

    Correct Answer
    A. 0.299cm
    Explanation
    The total length of the four ribbons can be found by adding their individual lengths. Converting the lengths from millimeters to centimeters, we get 3.4cm + 5.5cm + 8.7cm + 12.3cm = 29.9cm. Therefore, the correct answer is 29.9cm.
