  1. Lily and Charles are going to see a musical.  The show starts at 7.30 pm.  It runs for 2 hours 35 minutes.  What time does it finish?

Explanation

The show starts at 7.30 pm and runs for 2 hours and 35 minutes. To find out what time it finishes, we need to add 2 hours and 35 minutes to the starting time. 2 hours and 35 minutes is equivalent to 2 hours and 30 minutes plus an additional 5 minutes. Adding 2 hours to 7.30 pm gives us 9.30 pm, and adding the additional 30 minutes gives us 10.00 pm. Finally, adding the extra 5 minutes brings us to the correct answer of 10:05 pm.

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

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?

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.

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

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.

Submit
6. Round off to the nearest thousand:405 294

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.

Submit
9. What is the remainder when 79 is divided by 6?

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.

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

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.

Submit
11.  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?

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.

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

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.

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.
