Calculate: (88)(7.08) =
- A. 862.5
- B. 88.040
- C. 64.252
- D. 623.04
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: To find the product of 88 and 7.08, simply multiply the two numbers: 88 x 7.08 = 623.04. Therefore, the correct answer is D. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because they do not result from the correct multiplication of 88 and 7.08.

A medication order is for 250 micrograms of a drug to be administered subcutaneously. The available syringe measures in milliliters. How many milliliters should the healthcare professional draw up?
- A. 0.00025 milliliters
- B. 0.0025 milliliters
- C. 0.025 milliliters
- D. 0.25 milliliters
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: 1 milliliter (mL) is equal to 1000 micrograms (mcg). Therefore, to find out how many milliliters are needed for 250 micrograms: 250 mcg · 1000 = 0.25 mL. So, the healthcare professional should draw up 0.25 milliliters of the drug to administer 250 micrograms subcutaneously.
Choice A, 0.00025 milliliters, is incorrect as it is too small a volume for the required dosage. Choice B, 0.0025 milliliters, is also too small. Choice C, 0.025 milliliters, is 100 times greater than the correct answer of 0.25 milliliters. Therefore, the correct answer is 0.25 milliliters.
The formula for calculating heart rate is HR = (220 - age) x 0.65. If a patient's heart rate is 136.5, what is their age?
- A. 30
- B. 40
- C. 50
- D. 60
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Rationale:
Given formula: HR = (220 - age) * 0.65
Given heart rate: HR = 136.5
Substitute the given heart rate into the formula:
136.5 = (220 - age) * 0.65
Solve for age:
136.5 = 143 - 0.65age
0.65age = 143 - 136.5
0.65age = 6.5
age = 6.5 / 0.65
age = 10
Therefore, the patient's age is 50 (option C).
A patient's height is 1.65 meters and their weight is 75kg. Calculate their BMI and interpret the result.
- A. 23.1 (Normal)
- B. 25.3 (Overweight)
- C. 27.7 (Overweight)
- D. 32.8 (Obese)
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: To calculate BMI, divide weight (75kg) by height squared (1.65m^2) to get BMI (27.7). A BMI of 27.7 falls within the 'overweight' category (25-29.9 BMI). Choice A is incorrect as a BMI of 23.1 would be in the 'normal' range (18.5-24.9 BMI). Choice B is incorrect as 25.3 falls within the 'overweight' category. Choice D is incorrect as 32.8 is in the 'obese' category (>30 BMI). Therefore, the correct answer is C.
What is the total perimeter of a playground fence that has a rectangular section (5m by 3m) attached to a semicircular section with a radius of 2m?
- A. 13m
- B. 16m
- C. 19m
- D. 22m
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: To find the total perimeter, we first calculate the perimeter of the semicircle, which is half of a full circle, so the formula is π * radius. For the semicircle with a radius of 2m, the perimeter is approximately 3.14 * 2m = 6.28m. Next, we calculate the perimeter of the rectangular section by adding twice the length and twice the width (2 * length + 2 * width). For the rectangle with dimensions 5m by 3m, the perimeter is 2 * 5m + 2 * 3m = 10m + 6m = 16m. Finally, we sum the perimeters of the semicircle and the rectangle to get the total perimeter: 6.28m + 16m = 22.28m. Rounding to the nearest meter, the total perimeter is approximately 22m. Therefore, the correct answer is 22m. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect as they do not accurately calculate the total perimeter of the playground fence.
A newborn weighs 8 pounds 5 ounces. There are 453.59 grams per pound. What is the infant's weight in grams?
- A. A. 2268 grams
- B. B. 3629 grams
- C. C. 3770 grams
- D. D. 3856 grams
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: To convert pounds and ounces to grams:
8 pounds = 8 453.59 = 3,628.72 grams.
5 ounces = (5 · 16) 453.59 = 141.75 grams.
Total weight = 3,628.72 + 141.75 = 3,629 grams (rounded).
Therefore, the infant's weight is approximately 3,629 grams.
Choice A, 2268 grams, is incorrect as it does not account for the weight in ounces.
Choice C, 3770 grams, is incorrect as it is not the accurate converted weight.
Choice D, 3856 grams, is incorrect as it does not consider the conversion of ounces to grams.
