Question 1 of 5

Which of the following is listed in order from least to greatest?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To determine the order from least to greatest, we can convert all fractions and mixed numbers to decimals or use a least common denominator. Converting the fractions in Choice C to decimals, we get -2.875, -2.75, -0.2, 0.125, and 0.4 when reading from left to right. Negative integers with larger absolute values are less than negative integers with smaller absolute values. Therefore, the correct answer is Choice C. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because they do not present the numbers in the correct order from least to greatest when converted to decimals or compared using common denominators.

Question 2 of 5

A lab technician took 100 hairs from a patient to conduct several tests. The technician used 1/7 of the hairs for a drug test. How many hairs were used for the drug test? (Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.)

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To find how many hairs were used for the drug test, you need to calculate 1/7 of 100. 1/7 of 100 is 14.2857, which rounds to 14.29 when rounded to the nearest hundredth. Therefore, 14.29 hairs were used for the drug test. Choice A is incorrect as it does not account for rounding to the nearest hundredth. Choices B and D are incorrect as they do not accurately reflect the calculated value after rounding.

Question 3 of 5

Simplify the following expression: (2/7) · (5/6)

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: To divide fractions, you multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction. In this case, (2/7) · (5/6) becomes (2/7) (6/5) = 12/35. Therefore, the correct answer is 12/35. Choice A (2/5), choice B (35/15), and choice C (5/21) are incorrect because they do not correctly simplify the given expression.

Question 4 of 5

Which of the following is listed in order from least to greatest? (-2, -3/4, -0.45, 3%, 0.36)

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To determine the order from least to greatest, convert all the values to a common form. When written in decimal form, the order is -2, -0.75 (which is equal to -3/4), -0.45, 0.03 (which is equal to 3%), and 0.36. Therefore, the correct order is -2, -3/4, -0.45, 3%, 0.36 (Choice A). Choice B is incorrect as it has the incorrect placement of -2 and 0.36. Choice C is incorrect as it incorrectly places -0.45 before -2. Choice D is incorrect as it incorrectly places 0.36 before 3%.

Question 5 of 5

How many milligrams are in 5 grams?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: To convert grams to milligrams, you need to multiply by 1000 since 1 gram is equal to 1000 milligrams. Therefore, 5 grams is equal to 5 * 1000 = 5000 milligrams. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because they do not correctly convert grams to milligrams. Choice A is incorrect as it represents a decrease in value instead of an increase when converting from grams to milligrams. Choice B is incorrect because it is a factor of 10 lower than the correct answer. Choice C is incorrect as it is a factor of 10 lower than the correct answer. Thus, the correct answer is D, 5000 mg.
