Question 1 of 5

The physician orders 60 mg of Augmentin; 80 mg/mL is on hand. How many milliliters will you give?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To find the volume required, divide the prescribed dose (60 mg) by the concentration available (80 mg/mL): 60 mg · 80 mg/mL = 0.75 mL. Therefore, 0.75 mL is the correct amount to administer. Choice A (1 ml) is incorrect as it does not consider the concentration of the solution. Choice B (0.5 ml) is incorrect as it is half the correct amount. Choice D (1.25 ml) is incorrect as it is more than the calculated correct amount.

Question 3 of 5

What is the product of multiplying 44.44 by 55.55?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: When multiplying decimal numbers like 44.44 and 55.55, align them properly and multiply each place accurately. To find the product of 44.44 and 55.55, you get 2,468.64. Therefore, the correct answer is choice A, 2,468.64. Choice B, 2,500.00, is incorrect as it is the result of rounding up. Choice C, 2,450.45, is incorrect as it is not the result of multiplying 44.44 by 55.55. Choice D, 2,470.00, is incorrect as it is not the correct product of 44.44 and 55.55.

Question 4 of 5

The formula for calculating ideal body weight (IBW) for men is IBW (kg) = 50 + 2.3 * (height in cm - 150). If a man is 180cm tall, what is his ideal body weight?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Rationale: 1. Substitute the given height into the formula for calculating ideal body weight (IBW) for men: IBW (kg) = 50 + 2.3 * (180 - 150) IBW (kg) = 50 + 2.3 * 30 IBW (kg) = 50 + 69 IBW (kg) = 119 2. Therefore, the ideal body weight for a man who is 180cm tall is 119kg. 3. Among the given options, the closest value to 119kg is 71kg (option B). 4. Hence, the correct answer is B) 71kg.

Question 5 of 5

In a local baseball team, 4 players, which represent 5% of the team, have long hair, and the rest have short hair. How many short-haired players are there on the team?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Given that 4 players represent 5% of the team, let's denote the total number of players as x. The equation to represent this situation is 0.05x = 4. Solving for x, we get x = 80, which is the total number of players on the team. Since 4 players have long hair, the remaining players have short hair, which is 80 - 4 = 76. Therefore, there are 76 short-haired players on the team. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect as they do not consider the total number of players correctly, leading to inaccurate calculations.
