✍️ Sample ASVAB Questions & Answers
1. Choose the word most similar in meaning to CANDID.
✓ Honest
Candid means truthful and straightforward; honest is the best synonym.
2. A recruit earns $1,800 per month and saves 20% of his pay. How much does he save each month?
✓ $360
$1,800 × 0.20 = $360 saved per month.
3. A rectangular field is 120 yards long and 80 yards wide. What is its area in square yards?
✓ 9,600
Area = length × width = 120 × 80 = 9,600 square yards.
4. A soldier burns 600 calories per hour during a ruck march. How many calories does he burn in 2.5 hours?
✓ 1,500
600 × 2.5 = 1,500 calories burned.
5. What is the function of the master cylinder in a brake system?
✓ Convert pedal force into hydraulic pressure
The master cylinder converts the mechanical force from pressing the brake pedal into hydraulic pressure.
6. If 511 = 52 x 5m, what is the value of m?
✓ 9
When multiplying exponents with the same base, you add the powers. So, 5² x 5ᵐ = 5⁽²⁺ᵐ⁾. The given equation is 5¹¹ = 5⁽²⁺ᵐ⁾. For this equality to hold true, the exponents must be equal: 11 = 2 + m. Subtracting 2 from both sides gives m = 9.
