Kareen put a fence around the perimeter of a baseball field. Which units are reasonable for measuring the perimeter?
- A.
Yards
- B.
Kilometers

A. YardsExplanation
The perimeter of a baseball field is the distance around its boundary. Yards are a reasonable unit for measuring the perimeter because they are commonly used to measure distances in outdoor spaces, such as sports fields. Kilometers would be too large of a unit for measuring the perimeter of a baseball field, while square feet and square inches are units used for measuring area, not distance.Rate this question:

Bob has 32 cards, and Christina has double that. Kim has 18 cards less than Christina. Sally has 31 cards more than Bob.Who has the most cards?
- A.
Bob
- B.
Christina
- C.
Kim
- D.
Sally
Correct Answer
B. ChristinaExplanation
Christina has the most cards because she has double the number of cards Bob has. Since Bob has 32 cards, Christina would have 32 * 2 = 64 cards. Kim has 18 cards less than Christina, so Kim would have 64 - 18 = 46 cards. Sally has 31 cards more than Bob, so Sally would have 32 + 31 = 63 cards. Therefore, Christina has the most cards with a total of 64 cards.Rate this question:

It took 4 hrs and 35 minutes to cook a turkey. It took 1 hour and 18 minutes to cook soup. How much longer did it take to cook the turkey than the soup?
- A.
3 hours 17 minutes
- B.
3 hours 23 minutes
- C.

- D.
5 hours 53 minutes
Correct Answer
A. 3 hours 17 minutesExplanation
The turkey took 4 hours and 35 minutes to cook, while the soup took 1 hour and 18 minutes. To find out how much longer it took to cook the turkey than the soup, we subtract the time it took to cook the soup from the time it took to cook the turkey.
4 hours and 35 minutes - 1 hour and 18 minutes = 3 hours and 17 minutes.
Therefore, it took 3 hours and 17 minutes longer to cook the turkey than the soup.Rate this question:
