A rectangular bandage measures 5cm by 8cm. What is the area covered by the bandage?
- A. 10cm
- B. 13cm
- C. 40cm^2
- D. 64cm^2
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Rationale:
To find the area of a rectangle, you multiply the length by the width. In this case, the length of the bandage is 8cm and the width is 5cm.
Area = length x width
Area = 8cm x 5cm
Area = 40cm^2
Therefore, the area covered by the bandage is 40cm^2.
Solve for x: 5x + 10 = 20.
- A. 4
- B. 2
- C. 5
- D. 7
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: To solve the equation 5x + 10 = 20, first subtract 10 from both sides to isolate the term with x: 5x = 10. Then, divide by 5 on both sides to find the value of x: x = 2. Therefore, the correct answer is A. Choice B is incorrect because x is not equal to 2 but 4. Choice C is incorrect as x is not equal to 5. Choice D is incorrect as x is not equal to 7.
A newborn weighs 3,459 grams. There are 453.59 grams per pound. What is the infant's weight in pounds and ounces?
- A. 7 lbs 10 oz
- B. 10 lbs 7 oz
- C. 13 lbs 3 oz
- D. 3 lbs 13 oz
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: To find the weight in pounds, divide the weight in grams by the conversion factor (453.59 grams per pound). 3,459 grams · 453.59 = approximately 7 lbs 10 oz. Therefore, choice A (7 lbs 10 oz) is the correct answer. Choice B (10 lbs 7 oz) and Choice C (13 lbs 3 oz) are incorrect as they do not correspond to the correct conversion. Choice D (3 lbs 13 oz) is incorrect as it does not account for the additional pounds derived from dividing 3,459 grams by the conversion factor.
How many liters are in 2,000 milliliters?
- A. 4 liters
- B. 1 liter
- C. 2 liters
- D. 4 liters
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is 2 liters. There are 1,000 milliliters in a liter. Therefore, 2,000 milliliters is equal to 2 liters. Choice A is incorrect because it incorrectly doubles the conversion. Choice B is incorrect as it represents the amount in milliliters, not liters. Choice D is a duplicate of choice A, which is incorrect.
Change 0.004 to a ratio.
- A. 1:250
- B. 17:40
- C. 9:20
- D. 20:40
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: To convert 0.004 to a ratio, first express it as a fraction. 0.004 = 4/1000 = 1/250. Therefore, the ratio is 1:250. Choice A is the correct answer. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect ratios as they do not represent the equivalent fraction of 0.004.
