1. Write the date 1776 in Roman numerals.

• A. MDCCLXXVI
• B. MDDLXXI
• C. MCCDLXVI
• D. MCMLXXVI

Correct answer: A

Rationale: In Roman numerals, 1776 is correctly written as MDCCLXXVI. Here's the breakdown: M (1000) + D (500) + CCC (300) + L (50) + XX (20) + VI (6) = 1776. Therefore, the correct Roman numeral representation of the date 1776 is MDCCLXXVI. Choice A is correct because it follows the correct Roman numeral rules for representing 1776. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not add up to 1776 according to Roman numeral conventions.

2. How many grams are in 10 kilograms?

• A. 10,000 grams
• B. 100 grams
• C. 1000 grams
• D. 100,000 grams

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: 10,000 grams. There are 1,000 grams in a kilogram. Therefore, to find the number of grams in 10 kilograms, you multiply 10 (kilograms) by 1,000 (grams/kilogram) to get 10,000 grams. Choice B (100 grams) is incorrect as it represents the conversion for 1 kilogram, not 10 kilograms. Choice C (1000 grams) is incorrect as it is equal to 1 kilogram, not 10 kilograms. Choice D (100,000 grams) is incorrect as it represents the conversion for 100 kilograms, not 10 kilograms.

3. A researcher is collecting data on patient satisfaction. Out of 150 patients surveyed, 120 reported being satisfied with their care. What percentage of the patients were satisfied?

• A. 80%
• B. 75%
• C. 85%
• D. 90%

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To find the percentage of satisfied patients, divide the number of satisfied patients by the total number of patients surveyed and multiply by 100. In this case, 120 (satisfied patients) ÷ 150 (total patients surveyed) x 100 = 80%. Therefore, 80% of the patients were satisfied. Choice B (75%), C (85%), and D (90%) are incorrect percentages as the actual percentage of satisfied patients is 80%.

4. A die is rolled. What is the probability of getting 5?

• A. 16.67%
• B. 20%
• C. 50%
• D. 83.33%

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: 16.67%. When rolling a standard 6-sided die, each face has an equal probability of 1/6. Therefore, the probability of rolling a 5 specifically is 1/6, which is approximately 16.67% when converted to a percentage. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not reflect the correct probability of rolling a 5 on a standard die.

5. What is the result of the addition: 34 + 4 + 234?

• A. 70.2
• B. 230.72
• C. 234.74
• D. 272

Correct answer: D

Rationale: Adding the given numbers together: 34 + 4 + 234 = 272. The correct sum is 272. Choice A, 70.2, is incorrect as it does not reflect the accurate addition of the numbers. Choice B, 230.72, is incorrect as well. Choice C, 234.74, is also incorrect since the correct sum is 272, not 234.74.
