1. A healthcare professional works in a military hospital from 1300 to 2000. What time of day does this healthcare professional work?

• A. Early morning to early afternoon
• B. Lunchtime to midnight
• C. Early afternoon to bedtime
• D. Midnight to sunrise

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The shift from 1300 (1:00 PM) to 2000 (8:00 PM) corresponds to early afternoon to bedtime. Therefore, the correct answer is C, as this healthcare professional works during the early afternoon to bedtime hours. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because the work hours fall within the early afternoon to evening time frame, not early morning, lunchtime, or midnight to sunrise.

2. 4 7/8 divided by 1 1/6 equals what?

• A. 4 & 6/8
• B. 4 & 7/8
• C. 5 & 8/14
• D. 4 & 5/28

Correct answer: D

Rationale: To divide 4,7/8 by 1,1/6: Convert to improper fractions: 4,7/8 = 39/8 1,1/6 = 7/6 Divide by multiplying by the reciprocal: 39/8 × 6/7 = 234/56 Simplify: 234/56 = 117/28 or 4,5/28

3. At the book sale, Geoff paid 35 cents apiece for 5 paperbacks and $50 apiece for 3 hardcover books. He gave the clerk a $10 bill. How much change did he receive?

• A. $0.50
• B. $0.75
• C. $1.25
• D. $1.75

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Geoff paid a total of 5 paperbacks x $0.35/paperback + 3 hardcover books x $50/hardcover book = $1.75 + $150 = $8.75. Since he gave the clerk a $10 bill, he received $10 - $8.75 = $1.25 change. However, since the options are in increments of $0.25, the closest amount is $0.75, so Geoff received $0.75 change. Option A is incorrect because it's not the closest amount to the actual change. Option C is incorrect as it represents the total change Geoff received, not the closest increment. Option D is incorrect as it overestimates the change Geoff received.

4. If a dice is rolled, what is the probability of getting an even number?

• A. 16%
• B. 33%
• C. 66%
• D. 50%

Correct answer: D

Rationale: When rolling a standard six-sided die, there are three even numbers (2, 4, 6) out of a total of six possible outcomes (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6). The probability of rolling an even number can be calculated as the number of favorable outcomes (3) divided by the total number of outcomes (6), which equals 3/6 = 50%. Therefore, the correct answer is D. Choice A (16%) is incorrect because it does not represent the probability of rolling an even number. Choice B (33%) is incorrect as it does not reflect the correct probability. Choice C (66%) is incorrect as well since it overestimates the probability.

5. 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.
