4. 7,532.418 The amount of The amount of Units in Digits in the number the number above above A.The quantity on the left is greater B. The quantity on the right is greater C. Both are equal D. The relationship cannot be determined without further information Correct: A Explanation: There are 3 digits to the left of the decimal and four digits to the right of the decimal. Thus, there are 7 digits. The amount of the Units in the number above is just one. Units is a word that describes one place value. Please don’t misuse the term units. Again, there is a maximum of one unit in any number. If the question had asked for ‘The amount of the Units in the number above’, then the answer would be 2. 2 because that is the number in the Units place. 7>1

5. 2.3
2 + 3/10
A.The quantity on the left is greater B. The quantity on the right is greater C. Both are equal D. The relationship cannot be determined without further information Correct: C Explanation: There is a finite number of digits to the right of the decimal point. Thus, since each place value is a power of 10, every decimal can be converted to an integer divided by a power of 10. For example, 2.3 = 2 + 3/10 = 23/10

6. 90.17
90 + 17/100
A.The quantity on the left is greater B. The quantity on the right is greater C. Both are equal D. The relationship cannot be determined without further information Correct: C Explanation: If there are a finite number of digits to the right of the decimal point, converting a decimal to an equivalent fraction with integers in the numerator and denominator is a straightforward process. Since each place value is a power of 10, every decimal can be converted to an integer divided by a power of 10. For example, 90.17 = 90 + (17 / 100) = (9,000 + 17) / (100) = 9,017 / 100

7. 0.612
153/250
A.The quantity on the left is greater B. The quantity on the right is greater C. Both are equal D. The relationship cannot be determined without further information Correct: C Explanation: If there are a finite number of digits to the right of the decimal point, converting a decimal to an equivalent fraction with integers in the numerator and denominator is a straightforward process. Since each place value is a power of 10, every decimal can be converted to an integer divided by a power of 10. For example, 0.612 = 612 / 1000 Notice the right side, be precise, be attentive, and trust your preparation. Preparation will teach you to make 1000 similar to 250. 612 / 4 = 153 1000 / 4 250

18. A true statement is worth 1 points. A false statement is worth only -1 point. Which answer correctly indicates the sum of the 5 independent statements below Statement 1. Every fraction with integers in the numerator and denominator is equivalent to a decimal that terminates or repeats. Statement 2. every rational number can be expressed as either a terminating decimal as in 1/4 = .0.25, or as a repeating decimal, as in 25/12 = 2.08333333.... Statement 3. every terminating or repeating decimal represents a rational number. Statement 4.Not all decimals are terminating or repeating; for instance, the decimal that is equivalent to !2 is 1.41421356237. . . , and it can be shown that this decimal does not terminate or repeat. Such numbers are called irrational numbers. Statement 5. Every number with a finite number of digits to the right of the decimal point can be converted to an integer divided by a power of 10.
