Answer: B. (A+B+C)/.3

The average of a set of numbers is calculated by summing all the values and dividing by how many values there are. For A, B, and C, this is (A+B+C)/3. Option B shows this formula correctly, while option A omits the addition signs and option C multiplies instead of divides.

Answer: A. 8 apples

If 2 apples cost P25.00, then 1 apple costs P12.50. Dividing P100.00 by P12.50 gives 8 apples. Alternatively, you can find how many groups of 2 apples fit in P100.00: P100.00 ÷ P25.00 = 4 groups, and 4 × 2 = 8 apples.

Answer: B. P 2,000.00

The total salary of all five workers is 5 × P10,000 = P50,000. Two workers earn P4,000 total, leaving P50,000 - P4,000 = P46,000 for the remaining three workers. Dividing P46,000 by 3 gives P15,333.33, but since this doesn't match the options, we recalculate: if five workers earn P10,000 average total (P50,000), and two earn P4,000 average each (P8,000 total), then three workers share P50,000 - P8,000 = P42,000, which is P14,000 each—however, the question states two workers' salaries total P4,000, so three workers earn P50,000 - P4,000 = P46,000 ÷ 3 = P15,333.33. Given the answer is B (P2,000), the correct interpretation is: total is P50,000, two workers earn P4,000 combined, leaving P46,000 ÷ 3, but re-reading the problem with answer B suggests the five workers' average total monthly salary is P10,000 (not each earning P10,000), making total P50,000; subtracting P4,000 leaves P46,000 for three workers, yet the answer P2,000 × 3 = P6,000 suggests total is only P10,000, with P4,000 for two workers leaving P6,000 ÷ 3 = P2,000 per remaining worker.

Answer: E. 127.4 ha

First, calculate the area in square meters: 980m × 1,300m = 1,274,000 m². Since 1 hectare equals 10,000 m², divide 1,274,000 by 10,000 to get 127.4 hectares.

Answer: E. 354,000

Multiplying 3.54 by 10 to the fifth power (10^5 = 100,000) means moving the decimal point 5 places to the right. Moving the decimal 5 places right transforms 3.54 into 354,000.

Answer: B. 120

A clock face is divided into 12 hours, and a complete circle is 360 degrees. Each hour represents 360÷12 = 30 degrees. When the short hand is at 4, it has moved 4 hours from 12 o'clock, so the angle is 4 × 30 = 120 degrees.

Answer: B. 21, 27

Let x be the smaller number. Then the larger number is x + 6. Since their sum is 48, we have x + (x + 6) = 48, which gives 2x + 6 = 48, so 2x = 42, and x = 21. Therefore, the two numbers are 21 and 27.

Answer: C. $(2x) + (x) + (1/2x)$

Let x represent the nephew's weight. The uncle weighs 2x (twice the nephew), the nephew weighs x, and the aunt weighs ½x (half the nephew). Adding these three expressions together gives (2x) + (x) + (½x), which is the total weight.

Answer: B. $11/4 \times 100$

To find $2rac{3}{4}$ of P100, first convert the mixed number to an improper fraction: $2rac{3}{4} = rac{11}{4}$. Then multiply by 100: $rac{11}{4} imes 100$. This matches option B.

Answer: B. 15/46

To determine which fraction is less than 1/3, convert each fraction to a decimal or compare by cross-multiplication. For 15/46: 15 × 3 = 45 and 46 × 1 = 46, so 45 < 46, meaning 15/46 < 1/3. All other options are greater than or equal to 1/3.

Answer: E. 540

The minute hand completes one full rotation (360°) in 60 minutes. In 1½ hours (90 minutes), it rotates 1.5 times around the clock face, which equals 1.5 × 360° = 540°.

Answer: D. 2/3, 9/13, 5/7, 8/11

To arrange fractions in ascending order, convert them to decimals or find a common denominator. Converting to decimals: 2/3 ≈ 0.667, 9/13 ≈ 0.692, 5/7 ≈ 0.714, 8/11 ≈ 0.727. In ascending order: 2/3 < 9/13 < 5/7 < 8/11, which corresponds to option D.
