Correct Answer: D

Rationale: 1 milliliter (mL) is equal to 1000 micrograms (mcg). Therefore, to find out how many milliliters are needed for 250 micrograms: 250 mcg · 1000 = 0.25 mL. So, the healthcare professional should draw up 0.25 milliliters of the drug to administer 250 micrograms subcutaneously. Choice A, 0.00025 milliliters, is incorrect as it is too small a volume for the required dosage. Choice B, 0.0025 milliliters, is also too small. Choice C, 0.025 milliliters, is 100 times greater than the correct answer of 0.25 milliliters. Therefore, the correct answer is 0.25 milliliters.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: To find 6.4% of 32, first calculate 6.4% as a decimal (0.064) and then multiply it by 32 to get 2.048. When rounding to the tenths place, 2.048 is rounded to 2.1 because the digit after the tenths place is 8, which is equal to or greater than 5. Choice A is incorrect as it does not reflect the accurate calculation. Choices C and D are also incorrect because they do not match the correct result of multiplying 6.4% by 32 and rounding to the tenths place.

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.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: If two-thirds of the students are boys, then one-third of the students must be girls. One-third of 27 is 9, so there are 9 girls in Mr. Garcia's class. Therefore, the correct answer is 9. Choice A is incorrect because it is too low; only one-third of the students are girls. Choices C and D are incorrect as they do not reflect the correct calculation based on the given information in the question.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Rationale: Given formula: HR = (220 - age) * 0.65 Given heart rate: HR = 136.5 Substitute the given heart rate into the formula: 136.5 = (220 - age) * 0.65 Solve for age: 136.5 = 143 - 0.65age 0.65age = 143 - 136.5 0.65age = 6.5 age = 6.5 / 0.65 age = 10 Therefore, the patient's age is 50 (option C).
