Correct Answer is A
Explanation
In this problem, we take the triangle as a right-angled triangle and label it as follows:
From the Pythagoras theorem A2 + B2= C2, we can look for a combination of A and B that when the squares of A and B are summed give a square of 13. Mathematically,
But C=13 inches
If we take A=5 inches and B=12 inches, then
Next, we take A=2.5 inches, B=6 inches
Next, we take A=2.5 inches, B=4 inches
6.25+16=169
22.25≠169
Taking A=5 inches and B=8 inches
From the above computation, the combination of A=5 inches and B=12 inches give a triangle with a hypothenuse of 13 inches.

Correct Answer is A
Explanation
to do a comparison of the given data set, we convert the fraction numbers into the approximate decimals.
4/3=1.333
2720=1.35
Now, we have 1.333, 1.35, 1.369, 1.357. These numbers are arranged from the smallest to the largest number, we look at the number in the second decimal place value
1.333 the number in second decimal place value is 3
1.35 the number in third decimal place value is 5
1.369 the number in third decimal place value is 6
1.357 the number in third decimal place value is 5
However, 1.35 and 1.357 have 5 in the second-place vale. We use the ird place value to compare the two number:
1.35 is same as 1.350 and the number in the third-place value is 0
1.357 the number in the third-place value is 7
Now, 0 is less than 7, and thus 1.35 is less than 1.357
Overall, 3 is less than 5, and 5 less than 6 and the provided numbers can be arranged from the smallest to the largest as:
1.333, 1.35, 1.357, 1.369
Thus, the corresponding given numbers organized from the smallest to the largest become:
4/3, 27/20, 1.357, 1.369
The greatest value is 1.369
Correct Answer is A
Explanation
to solve for x, we order like terms together and proceed as follows:
4x-3-5x=24
Add 3 to both sides of the equation
4x-3+3-5x=24+3
4x+3-3-5x=27
4x-5x=27
-x=27
Divide both sides by -1
-x/-1=27/-1
x= -27
Thus, the unknown value of x is -27
Correct Answer is A
Explanation
A whole pizza is equivalent to 1. Then
One friend eats half of the pizza=1/2 of 1=1/2*1=1/2
Remaining amount of pizza to be shared=1-1/2=2/2-1/2=1/2
Now, three friends share ½ equally and each friend will get,
Thus, the three friends each share 1/6.

yoghurt=4×4.5/3=18/3=6oz
Correct Answer is B
Explanation
Here we are required to find the area of the square of sides 3.1 m. The square is a four-sided figure with each side equal and opposite sides making 90 degrees.
Area of the square =side*side
Side=3.1 m
Area of the square =3.1 m *3.1 m=9.61 m2
Note: 3.1 + 3.1 = 6.2 which is a wrong answer.
Correct Answer is D
Explanation
Percentages always add up to 100%. If we let x be the percent of graduates working for jobs unrelated to law, then
74%+3%+2%+x=100%
79%+x=100%
Subtract 79% from both sides of the equation
79%-79%+x=100%
x=100%-79%
x=21%
So, the number of graduates working for jobs unrelated to law is 21%.
Correct Answer is A
