Report all decimal places: 3.7 + 7.289 + 4 =
- A. 14.989
- B. 5.226
- C. 15.0
- D. 5.012
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: To find the sum, you add the numbers 3.7, 7.289, and 4 together. 3.7 + 7.289 + 4 equals 14.989. The correct answer is 14.989 because it includes all decimal places from the sum of the numbers provided. Choice B (5.226) is incorrect as it doesn't account for the sum of the given numbers. Choice C (15.0) is incorrect as it rounds the sum to the nearest whole number, losing the decimal precision. Choice D (5.012) is incorrect as it doesn't reflect the correct sum of the decimal numbers.

Convert the percentage to a decimal: 38%
- A. 3.8
- B. 0.38
- C. 0.038
- D. 38.0
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: To convert a percentage to a decimal, you divide the percentage by 100. Therefore, 38% as a decimal is 0.38 (38 · 100 = 0.38). Choice A, 3.8, is incorrect as it is equivalent to 380%. Choice C, 0.038, is incorrect as it represents 3.8%. Choice D, 38.0, is incorrect as it is still in percentage form.
Round to the nearest whole number: What is 18% of 600?
- A. 108
- B. 76
- C. 254
- D. 176
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: To find 18% of 600, you multiply 600 by 0.18, which equals 108. Since 108 is already a whole number, when rounding to the nearest whole number, it remains the same. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not represent the correct calculation for finding 18% of 600.
A nurse is reviewing the daily intake and output (I&O) of a patient consuming a clear diet. The urinary drainage bag denotes a total of 1,000 mL for the past 24 hours. The total intake is 2 8-oz cups of coffee, 1 16-oz serving of clear soup, and 1 pint of water. How much is the deficit in milliliters?
- A. 440 mL
- B. 540 mL
- C. 660 mL
- D. 760 mL
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: 2 8-oz cups of coffee = 16 oz = 16 30 = 480 mL. 1 16-oz serving of clear soup = 16 30 = 480 mL. 1 pint of water = 16 oz = 480 mL. Total intake = 480 + 480 + 480 = 1,440 mL. Deficit = 1,440 mL (intake) - 1,000 mL (output) = 440 mL. Therefore, the deficit in milliliters is 440 mL. The correct answer is A. Choice B, 540 mL, is incorrect as it miscalculates the total intake. Choice C, 660 mL, is incorrect as it does not accurately subtract the output from the intake. Choice D, 760 mL, is incorrect as it overestimates the deficit by not considering the correct total intake and output values.
What is the numerical value of the Roman numeral XVII?
- A. 22
- B. 17
- C. 48
- D. 57
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The Roman numeral XVII represents the number 17. In Roman numerals, X stands for 10 and V stands for 5. When V (5) is subtracted from X (10), it results in 5 being subtracted from 10, which equals 5. Adding this to V (5) gives the total value of XVII as 17. Choice A is incorrect because it is not the correct numerical value of XVII. Choice C and D are also incorrect as they do not correspond to the Roman numeral XVII.
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.
