    Measurement and Geometry

    A cargo container measures 12 feet long, 9 feet wide, and 6 feet high. If you are packing it with uniform storage crates that each measure 3 feet on all sides, what is the maximum number of whole crates that can fit inside the container?

    Show answer and rationale

    Answer: B. 72 boxes

    To find how many crates fit, divide the container's length, width, and height by the crate's side length, then multiply the three results.

    Mathematical Reasoning and Estimation

    A local health clinic is hosting a wellness fair. Each attendee is expected to drink 4 bottles of water. If there are 43 attendees registered and each case of water contains 6 bottles, which of the following is the best estimate for the number of cases the clinic should order?

    Show answer and rationale

    Answer: C. 30 cases

    To find the best estimate, round the 43 attendees to 40. Multiply by 4 bottles (160 total), then divide by 6 bottles per case to get approx 30.

    Data Relationships and Statistics

    An exercise scientist notes that as an athlete increases their running speed on a treadmill, their heart rate also increases. Conversely, when the athlete slows down, their heart rate decreases. Which of the following best describes the relationship between running speed and heart rate?

    Show answer and rationale

    Answer: C. The variables show a positive covariance.

    Positive covariance occurs when two variables move in the same direction. When speed increases, heart rate increases, indicating a positive relationship.

    Geometric Volume Calculations

    A storage container in a medical facility is shaped like a rectangular prism. It has a length of 12 meters, a width of 4 meters, and a height of 3 meters. What is the total volume of the container in cubic meters (m³)?

    Show answer and rationale

    Answer: A. 144 m³

    Calculate the volume of a rectangular prism by multiplying its length, width, and height (12 x 4 x 3 = 144).
