Question 1 of 5

A patient needs to take 2 tablets for every 30 pounds of body weight. If they weigh 150 pounds, how many tablets should they take?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Rationale: - The patient needs to take 2 tablets for every 30 pounds of body weight. - If the patient weighs 150 pounds, we can calculate the number of tablets needed by dividing the weight by 30 and then multiplying by 2. - 150 pounds / 30 pounds = 5 - 5 x 2 = 10 tablets - Therefore, the patient should take 10 tablets.

Question 3 of 5

A birdbath has a hemispherical bowl with a diameter of 30cm. What is its volume?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To find the volume of a hemispherical bowl, we use half the formula for a sphere's volume: (2/3) * π * (radius)^3. Given the diameter is 30cm, the radius is half of that, which is 15cm. Substitute the radius into the formula: (2/3) * π * (15cm)^3 ≈ 2700 cu cm. Therefore, the correct volume is approximately 2700 cu cm. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect as they do not correctly calculate the volume of the hemispherical bowl.

Question 4 of 5

A lab test result shows a blood glucose level of 5.5 millimoles per liter (mmol/L). What is the equivalent level in milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL)?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To convert the blood glucose level from millimoles per liter (mmol/L) to milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL), we need to perform a double conversion. 1 millimole is equivalent to 180.15 milligrams, and 1 liter is equal to 10 deciliters. First, multiply the glucose level (5.5 mmol/L) by the conversion factor for millimoles to milligrams (180.15 mg/mmol), then divide by the conversion factor for liters to deciliters (10 dL/L): 5.5 mmol/L * 180.15 mg/mmol / 10 dL/L ≈ 55 mg/dL. Therefore, the equivalent blood glucose level in mg/dL is 55. Choice A is correct. Choice B is incorrect as it does not account for the conversion factors properly. Choices C and D are significantly off as they do not follow the correct conversion calculations.

Question 5 of 5

7 is divisible by which of the following numbers?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Rationale: 1. 7 is divisible by 1 because every number is divisible by 1. 2. 7 is divisible by 7 because any number is divisible by itself. 3. 7 is not divisible by 2 because 7 is an odd number and not divisible by 2. 4. 7 is not divisible by 3 because the sum of the digits of 7 (7) is not divisible by 3. Therefore, 7 is divisible by 1, 7, and itself (7), making the correct answer D) 2, 3, and 7.
