Here are the solutions to the questions:

Part 42· 3 steps

  1. Identify the total number of pregnancies and the total number of children.

    The woman had 4 pregnancies.
    The total number of children was 12.

  2. Calculate the number of children per birth.

    Since each pregnancy gave the same number of children, divide the total number of children by the number of pregnancies.

    Children per birth=Total childrenNumber of pregnancies=124\text{Children per birth} = \frac{\text{Total children}}{\text{Number of pregnancies}} = \frac{12}{4}

  3. Perform the division.

    124=3\frac{12}{4} = 3

    The woman gave birth to 3 children at each birth.

    The correct option is B. 3.

Part 43· 2 steps

  1. Analyze each pair of words to determine their relationship.

    • A. DOWN - FALL: These words are synonyms; both mean to move downwards.
    • B. HUGE - ENORMOUS: These words are synonyms; both mean very large.
    • C. INCREASE - REDUCE: These words are opposites; "increase" means to make larger, and "reduce" means to make smaller.
    • D. JOY - GLAD: These words are synonyms; both relate to happiness.

  2. Identify the pair that consists of opposites.

    The pair "INCREASE - REDUCE" consists of words with opposite meanings.

    The correct option is C. INCREASE - REDUCE.

Part 44· 3 steps

  1. Understand the relationship in the first part of the analogy.

    "BEGIN is to END" shows an opposite relationship. "BEGIN" is the start, and "END" is the finish.

  2. Apply the same relationship to the second part of the analogy.

    We need to find the opposite of "SCATTER". "SCATTER" means to spread widely or disperse.

  3. Evaluate the given options for the opposite of "SCATTER".

    • A. COLLECT: To gather together. This is the opposite of scattering.
    • B. DISPERSE: To spread over a wide area. This is a synonym of scatter.
    • C. SPREAD: To extend over a large or increasing area. This is a synonym of scatter.
    • D. THROW: To propel something with force. This is not the opposite of scatter in this context.

    The opposite of "SCATTER" is "COLLECT".

    The correct option is A. COLLECT.
