Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To solve the proportion 3:2 :: 24:x, we set up the equation 3/2 = 24/x. Cross multiply to get 3x = 48, then divide by 3 to find x = 16. Therefore, the correct answer is 16. Choice B (12) is incorrect as it does not satisfy the proportion. Choice C (2) is incorrect as it does not match the relationship between the numbers given. Choice D (22) is incorrect as it is not the solution to the proportion equation.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To find the answer, divide 4748 by 12: 4748 · 12 = 395.666... Since we are rounding to the nearest whole number, we round up to 396 because the decimal part (.666) is greater than .5. Choice A (372) is too low as it does not account for the decimal value. Choice B (384) is also too low. Choice D (412) is too high as it goes beyond the correct rounded value.

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).

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: To find the result of multiplying 7.2 by 0.34, multiply these two numbers: 7.2 x 0.34 = 2.448. The correct answer is 2.448. Choice A, 14.12, is incorrect as it seems to be the sum of the two numbers. Choice B, 0.234, is incorrect as it is much smaller than the expected result. Choice C, 7.64, is incorrect as it is the result of adding the two numbers rather than multiplying them.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To convert a decimal to a percent, multiply by 100. In this case, 0.64 100 = 64%. Therefore, the correct answer is C. Choice A (0.64%) is incorrect as it represents the original decimal value in percentage form. Choice B (6.4%) is incorrect as it incorrectly multiplies the decimal value by 10 instead of 100. Choice D (0.064%) is incorrect as it represents the decimal value as a fraction of 1000 instead of 100.
