Wow... that's a big request!! Let me give you some help solving them.



1 dozen pair of gloves is 12 pair = 24 individual gloves, so 30 doz pair, would be 30(12) PAIRS = 2times that many individual gloves



To convert from Celsius to Fahrenheit: (9/5)(Celsius) + 32.

(To convert form F to C: (F-32)(5/9)



Net Weight would be the Gross Weight (the weight of everthing combined) MINUS the packaging



Volume of a block (cube/rectangular prism/etc.) is Length * Width * Height... units are cubed



There are 2pints in 1 quart, and 4 quarts in 1 gallon... so there are 8 pints in ONE gallon...



How many months are there in a year? multiply that by 30 to find the number of monthly payments in 30 years.



1 Ton = 2000 lbs You could set up a proportion to solve this if the answer isn't immediately apparent. 2000lbs / 1 T = 20,000lbs / X Tons



Military time works on a 24 hour clock, with 2400 hours being midnight... then 0100 hours is 1am, 0200 hours is 2am, etc... (12 noon is 1200 hours... 1300 hours is 1pm)



To change linear feet to inches, you multiply by 12 (because there are 12 inches per foot)... To change cubic feet to cubic inches, you would multiply by 12x12x12 because that's how many cubic inches there are per cubic foot.



Again, 1 dozen = 12, so 3,000 dozen would be 30,000(12)



Again, volume is Length(Width)(Height)



For the last one

Add each of the liquid amounts as given... You'll end up with: 3 gallons 8 quarts 13 pints



Convert units using the following: 2 pints = 1 quart, 8 pints = gallon, 4 quarts = 1 gallon



13 pints = 6 quarts 1 pint... so now you have 3 gallons 14 quarts 1 pint

14 quarts = 3 gallons 2 quarts (3 gallons is 12 quarts, with 2 left over)

so now you have 6 gallons 2 quarts 1 pintPlease help me pick the best answer to these math questions?
I checked my answers with Enmar, and I was glad I did! I found a couple errors after posting! The only one that differed was the one about the gloves since there are 2 individual gloves in every pair. Again Enmar, thanks for showing me my errors!



1.A Merchant bought 30 dozen pairs of gloves. How many individual gloves did the merchant buy?

30dozen*12pairs = 360 pairs of gloves. 360*2 = 720 individual gloves



A. 360 B. 420

B. 720 C. 300



2. If a thermometer indicates 40 degrees Celsius, what is the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit?

To convert from Celsius to Fahrenheit:

F掳 = (C掳 x 9/5) +32



F掳 = (40 x 9/5) +32

F掳 = 104. No choices are correct. I double checked this with the site below?br>

A. 22 f C. 72 f

B. 54 f D. 300



3. The Gross weight of a package and its contents is 11 pounds 5 ounces. If the packaging weighs 1 pound 15 ounces, what is the net weight of the content?

11 lbs 5 oz. ?1 lb 15 oz = 9 lb 6 oz



A. 10 LBS. 5 oz. C. 9 LBS. 6 oz.

B. 12 LBS. 20 oz. D. 10 LBS. 6 oz.



4. What is the Volume of a block of ice measuring 3 meters long, 1.5 meters wide , and 2 meters high?

Volume = width x length x height: (3*1.5*2) = 9



A.12 cu. m C. 6 cu. m

B. 9 cu. m D. 900 cu. m



5. 8 gallons equals how many pints?

http://www.calculateme.com/Volume/Pints/

A. 32 pt. C. 64 pt.

B. 2 pt. D. 128 pt.



6. The smiths took out a 30 year mortgage. How many monthly payments will they have to make on this mortgage?

A. 12 B. 120

B. 36 C. 360



7. 20,000 pounds equals how many English tons?

2,000 pounds = 1 ton: 20000/2 = 10000 pounds or 10 tons



A. 10,000 tons C. 2,000 tons

B. 10 tons D. 1 ton



8. If military time is 0145, what time is it on a regular clock?

C = 5/9 (41-32)

C = 0.55*9

C = 5



A. 56 degrees f C. 9 degrees f

B. 5 degrees f D. - 5 degrees f



10. What would you have to do to change 10 cubic feet into cubic inches?



1 Cft =1ft x 1ft x 1 ft,

1 ft = 12 Inches

Therefore 1 cubic ft = 12 inches x 12 inches x 12 inches =1728 Cubic inches

To convert Cubic feet into cubic inches multiply by 1728 (answer)



A. Multiply by 1,728 C. Multiply by 46,656

B. Divide by 1,728 D. Divide by 46,656



11. If John ran a 5-kilometer marathon, how long was that in meters?

4*4*8 = 128

A. 4.74 cu. ft. C. 64 cu. ft.

B. 128 cu. ft. D. 3,456 cu. ft.



15. Walt is mixing fruit punch for a party. He combines 1 gallon 2 quarts 3 pints of orange juice, 1 gallon 3 quarts 7 pints of pineapple juice, and 1 gallon 3 quarts 3 pints of ginger ale. What is the total liquid of the punch?

1 gal * 3 = 3 gal, keeping in mind: 4 qt = 1 gal

2 qt + 3 + 3 = 8 qt, keeping in mind: 8 pt = 1 gal (which = 2 gal)

3 pints + 7 + 3 = 13 pints, keeping in mind: 1 pt = 陆 qt (which = 6 陆 qt)

= 6 gal, 2 qt., 1 pt.
