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. What is 28% of 100?

• A. 28
• B. 20
• C. 25
• D. 30

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: 28. To find 28% of 100, you multiply 0.28 (the decimal equivalent of 28%) by 100. This calculation results in 28. Therefore, 28% of 100 is 28. Choice B, 20, is incorrect as it represents 20% of 100. Choice C, 25, is incorrect as it represents 25% of 100. Choice D, 30, is incorrect as it represents 30% of 100.

3. Convert to metric: 7 grams = x milligrams

• A. 700 mg
• B. 0.7 mg
• C. 7,000 mg
• D. 0.07

Correct answer: C

Rationale: To convert grams to milligrams, you need to multiply by 1,000 since there are 1,000 milligrams in a gram. Therefore, 7 grams is equal to 7,000 milligrams. Choice A (700 mg) is incorrect because it represents grams to milligrams incorrectly. Choice B (0.7 mg) is incorrect as it converts grams to milligrams erroneously by decimal placement. Choice D (0.07) is incorrect as it converts grams to milligrams inaccurately by misplacing the decimal point.

4. A person consumed 75 grams of protein. This is 30% of the recommended daily intake (RDI) for protein. How many grams of protein does the person need to consume to meet the full RDI?

• A. 250 grams
• B. 225 grams
• C. 260 grams
• D. 300 grams

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To find the full RDI, divide the amount of protein consumed (75 grams) by 30% (or 0.30): 75 ÷ 0.30 = 250 grams. Therefore, the person needs 250 grams of protein to meet the full RDI. Choice A is correct because it accurately calculates the amount needed to reach the full RDI. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not correctly calculate the total amount of protein needed based on the given information.

5. 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.
