1. What is 70% of 200?

• A. 100
• B. 100
• C. 200
• D. 140

Correct answer: D

Rationale: To find 70% of a number, you multiply the number by 0.70. Therefore, 70% of 200 is calculated as 0.7 × 200 = 140. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect as they do not represent the correct calculation for finding 70% of 200.

2. What is 70% of 110?

• A. 77
• B. 79
• C. 81
• D. 83

Correct answer: C

Rationale: To find 70% of 110, you need to multiply 110 by 0.7. Therefore, 110 * 0.7 = 77. The correct answer is 81, not 77. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect as they are not the product of multiplying 110 by 0.7, which is the correct method for finding 70% of 110.

3. What temperature in Fahrenheit is 50°C? (Enter numeric value only. If rounding is necessary, round to the nearest whole number.)

• A. 110°F
• B. 122°F
• C. 130°F
• D. 140°F

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To convert from Celsius to Fahrenheit, use the formula: F = (C × 9/5) + 32. Substituting 50°C: F = (50 × 9/5) + 32 = 122°F. Therefore, 50°C is approximately 122°F. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not reflect the accurate conversion of 50°C to Fahrenheit.

4. A patient's temperature is 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit. What is their temperature in degrees Celsius (1°F = 5/9°C)?

• A. 37�C
• B. 32�C
• C. 41�C
• D. 45�C

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To convert Fahrenheit to Celsius, you need to subtract 32 from the Fahrenheit temperature (98.6°F) and then multiply the result by 5/9. Doing this calculation, you get 37°C. Choice B (32°C) is incorrect because it doesn't consider the conversion formula correctly. Choices C (41°C) and D (45°C) are incorrect as they do not apply the conversion formula accurately, leading to incorrect results.

5. How many liters are in 8,000 milliliters?

• A. 0.8 liters
• B. 8 liters
• C. 0.8 liters
• D. 0.08 liters

Correct answer: B

Rationale: There are 1,000 milliliters in a liter. To convert milliliters to liters, you divide by 1,000. Therefore, 8,000 milliliters ÷ 1,000 = 8 liters. This makes option B the correct answer. Option A, 0.8 liters, is incorrect as it is 1/10th of the correct answer. Option C, 0.8 liters (repeated), is also incorrect. Option D, 0.08 liters, is incorrect as it is 1/100th of the correct answer.
