-2/9, -0.9, -1.7, -4/7
Of the number listed above, which number is the greatest?
-0.9
-4/7
-1.7
-2/9
Correct Answer : D
The initial step is to convert the decimal options to fractions. Then, we find the LCM of the denominators of all fractions, which will be used to compare the values of the given options.
-0. becomes -9/10
-1.7 becomes -17/10
Then, the resulting denominators are 9, 10, and 63. Their LCM of 630 is used to multiply each fraction.
-2/9*630=-140
-9/10*630=-567
-17/10*630=-1071
-4/7*630=-360
From the calculations above, -140 is the greatest value of all the values. Thus, -2/9 is the greatest number.

we are asked to find the number of gallons a full tank can hold. A full tank is equivalent to 1.
Convert the mixed fraction into proper fraction as follows
If we let x be the number of gallons in full tank, and setting up the proportion equation with the number of gallons on the numerator and fraction of tank on denominator as follows.
Cross-multiply to find the value of x.
Converting 189/10 to a mixed fraction is 18 9/10. Thus, when the tank is full, it holds 18 9/10 gallons of water.

we are asked to find the number of students enrolled in the nursing program using the percentages in the pie chart.
If we let x represent the number of students enrolled in the nursing program, we set a proportion equation with number of students on the numerator and percentages on the denominator.
Total percent in the pie chart is 100%, which equals 800 students. Then, 42% will represent
We solve the value of x by cross-multiplying the equation above.
Therefore, 336 students will enroll for a nursing program.

we are asked to find the number of cups of flour that will be used to make 130 cookies.
First, we convert 3 ¼ into improper fraction as:
Letting x to be the number of cups of flour, we set up a proportion equation with number of cookies on numerator and number of cups of flour on the denominator becomes:
Solve the value of x by cross-products
Dividing both sides by 64, the above equation result to
Thus, the number of cups of flour needed to make 130 cookies is 845/128 cups, which is equal to 6 77/128 cups.

Explanation
A standard six-sided die has the numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6. The even numbers are 2, 4, and 6.
Step 1: Probability of rolling an even number on the first roll
There are 3 even numbers out of 6 total numbers, so:
P (evenonsecondroll) = 3/6 = ½
Step 2: Probability of rolling an even number on the second roll
Since rolling the die is an independent event, the probability remains:
P (evenonsecondroll) = 3/6 = ½
Step 3: Multiply the probabilities
P (evenonfirstANDevenonsecond) = ½ × ½ = ¼
Correct Answer is B
