1. Compare: 0.045 is _____ to 0.054.
- A. Greater than
- B. Less than
- C. Less than or equal to
- D. Equal
Correct answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B. When comparing 0.045 and 0.054, 0.045 is less than 0.054. Therefore, the correct relation is 'Less than.' Choice A ('Greater than') is incorrect because 0.045 is not greater than 0.054. Choice C ('Less than or equal to') is incorrect because 0.045 is strictly less than 0.054, not less than or equal to. Choice D ('Equal') is incorrect because 0.045 and 0.054 are not equal.
2. 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 correct answer is C: Early afternoon to bedtime. The healthcare professional's work hours from 1300 to 2000 correspond to 1 PM to 8 PM, indicating work during the afternoon and early evening. Choice A (Early morning to early afternoon) is incorrect because the professional works in the afternoon and early evening, not the morning. Choice B (Lunchtime to midnight) is incorrect as the professional finishes work before midnight, not until midnight. Choice D (Midnight to sunrise) is incorrect as the professional's work hours are during the daytime and evening, not overnight.
3. A train travels at 70 mph for 6 hours. How far did it travel?
- A. 490 miles
- B. 490 miles
- C. 540 miles
- D. 420 miles
Correct answer: D
Rationale: To find the distance traveled, multiply the speed of 70 mph by the time of 6 hours: 70 mph × 6 hours = 420 miles. Therefore, the correct answer is 420 miles. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect as they do not result from the correct calculation.
4. What is 50% of 120?
- A. 50
- B. 50
- C. 70
- D. 60
Correct answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D, 60. To find 50% of 120, you multiply 0.5 by 120: 0.5 x 120 = 60. Choice A and B are incorrect as they are duplicates. Choice C, 70, is incorrect because it is not the result of calculating 50% of 120.
5. 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.
