Question 3 of 5
Convert 0.25 to a fraction.
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: To convert a decimal to a fraction, place the decimal value over the place value of the last digit. In this case, 0.25 can be written as 25/100. Simplifying this fraction by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 25 gives 1/4. Therefore, 0.25 expressed as a fraction is 1/4. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they represent different fractional values that do not correspond to 0.25.

Question 5 of 5
If 5 nurses can care for 20 patients, how many nurses are needed for 40 patients?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: If 5 nurses can care for 20 patients, it means each nurse is responsible for 20/5 = 4 patients. To care for 40 patients, we divide the total patients by the number of patients each nurse can care for: 40/4 = 10 nurses. Therefore, 10 nurses are needed for 40 patients. Among the options, the closest number is 8 nurses, making it the correct answer. Choice A, 7 nurses, is insufficient. Choice C, 9 nurses, exceeds the required amount. Choice D, 10 nurses, matches the total number of nurses required, not the closest, making it incorrect.
