A technician is filling a storage tank. The tank currently contains 2.5 liters of coolant. The technician adds 750 milliliters more. How many total milliliters are in the tank now?
Total Volume (mL): ________________________ mL
Task 04: Distance Scale
The distance between Warehouse Alpha and Warehouse Beta is 12 kilometers. Mark Warehouse Gamma on the number line below, which is exactly 3/4 of the way from Alpha to Beta.
Alpha
0 km
Beta
12 km
Calculation: Gamma is located at __________ km.

Task 01 Solution
A delivery truck leaves the central warehouse at 8:45 AM. The driver travels for 1 hour and 35 minutes.
Process:
8:45 + 1 hour = 9:45 AM
9:45 + 15 minutes = 10:00 AM (20 minutes remaining)
10:00 + 20 minutes = 10:20 AM
Arrival Time: 10:20 AM
Task 02 Solution
5 motors weighing 4 kg each. Total mass in grams.
Process:
Step 1: 5 × 4 kg = 20 kg total
Step 2: 1 kg = 1,000 g
Step 3: 20 × 1,000 = 20,000 g
Total Mass: 20,000 g
Task 03 Solution
2.5 liters plus 750 milliliters.
Process:
Step 1: 2.5 L = 2,500 mL (since 1 L = 1,000 mL)
Step 2: 2,500 mL + 750 mL = 3,250 mL
Total Volume: 3,250 mL
Task 04 Solution
Warehouse Gamma is 3/4 of the way from Alpha (0 km) to Beta (12 km).
Process:
Step 1: Find 1/4 of 12 km (12 ÷ 4 = 3 km)
Step 2: Find 3/4 (3 km × 3 = 9 km)
Alpha (0)
Beta (12)
GAMMA
Calculation: Gamma is at 9 km.
Task 05 Solution
$0.85 for 6 packages.
Process:
0.85 × 6
80 ¢ × 6 = $4.80
5 ¢ × 6 = $0.30
$4.80 + $0.30 = $5.10
Total Cost: $5.10
