How many feet are in 2 miles?
- A. 5280 feet
- B. 15840 feet
- C. 10560 feet
- D. 10200 feet
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: To convert miles to feet, multiply the number of miles by the conversion factor of feet per mile. Since there are 5280 feet in 1 mile, to find the number of feet in 2 miles, you multiply 2 by 5280, resulting in 10560 feet. Choice A, 5280 feet, is the conversion factor for 1 mile, not for 2 miles. Choices B and D are incorrect calculations that do not follow the conversion factor correctly.

The physician ordered 20 mg of Tylenol per kg of body weight; on hand is 80 mg per tablet. The child weighs 12 kg. How many tablets will you give?
- A. 1 tablet
- B. 3 tablets
- C. 2 tablets
- D. 4 tablets
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: To calculate the total dose of Tylenol for the child weighing 12 kg, multiply the weight by the ordered dose: 12 kg x 20 mg/kg = 240 mg. Since each tablet contains 80 mg of Tylenol, divide the total dose needed by the amount per tablet: 240 mg · 80 mg/tablet = 3 tablets. Therefore, the correct answer is 3 tablets. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not reflect the accurate calculation for the number of tablets required based on the child's weight and the ordered dose per kg.
If 1 pound equals 453.59 grams, how many grams would a 7 lb. baby weigh?
- A. 3175.13 grams
- B. 4000 grams
- C. 4535 grams
- D. 3500 grams
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: To convert pounds to grams, multiply the weight in pounds by the conversion factor of 453.59 grams per pound. Therefore, 7 pounds x 453.59 grams/pound = 3175.13 grams, which is the weight of a 7 lb. baby in grams. Choice A is correct. Choice B (4000 grams) is incorrect as it does not use the correct conversion factor. Choice C (4535 grams) is incorrect as it seems to have used a rounding error. Choice D (3500 grams) is incorrect as it does not apply the correct conversion factor.
What is the result of adding 9.43 and 11.3?
- A. 20.73
- B. 21.3
- C. 22
- D. 19.5
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: 20.73. To calculate the sum of 9.43 and 11.3, you simply add the two numbers together. Therefore, 9.43 + 11.3 equals 20.73. Choice B (21.3) is incorrect because it represents the sum of rounding the numbers up. Choice C (22) and choice D (19.5) are also incorrect as they do not accurately reflect the sum of the provided numbers.
How many ounces are in 3/4 pints?
- A. 12 ounces
- B. 16 ounces
- C. 14 ounces
- D. 10 ounces
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: To find the number of ounces in 3/4 pints, we need to know that 1 pint is equal to 16 ounces. Therefore, 3/4 of a pint would be 3/4 * 16 = 12 ounces. The correct answer is 12 ounces because 3/4 pints is equivalent to 12 ounces. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not accurately calculate the conversion from pints to ounces.
The physician ordered 3,000 units of heparin; 5,000 U/mL is on hand. How many milliliters will you give?
- A. 0.5 ml
- B. 0.6 ml
- C. 0.75 ml
- D. 0.8 ml
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: To calculate the volume of heparin needed, use the formula: Volume of Heparin = (Ordered Units / Concentration of Heparin). Substituting the values, Volume = (3,000 units / 5,000 U/mL) = 0.6 ml. Therefore, the correct answer is 0.6 ml. Choice A (0.5 ml) is incorrect as it results from an incorrect calculation. Choices C (0.75 ml) and D (0.8 ml) are also incorrect calculations based on the wrong formula application or mathematical errors.
