1. If a parent changes their baby 6 times a day, how many diapers will be needed in a year?

• A. 2190 diapers
• B. 2100 diapers
• C. 2160 diapers
• D. 2140 diapers

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To calculate the number of diapers needed in a year with 6 diaper changes per day, multiply the daily diaper changes (6) by the days in a year (365): 6 x 365 = 2190 diapers required. This calculation ensures an ample supply of diapers for maintaining the infant's hygiene and comfort. The other choices are incorrect because they do not accurately account for the number of diaper changes per day multiplied by the days in a year. Choice B (2100 diapers) is too low, while choices C (2160 diapers) and D (2140 diapers) are too high based on the calculation. Understanding the frequency and quantity of diaper changes is crucial for supporting the infant's health and well-being. Therefore, the correct answer is 2190 diapers.

2. How many kilograms are there in 11 pounds?

• A. 5 kilograms
• B. 5.5 kilograms
• C. 22.2 kilograms
• D. 24.2 kilograms

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To convert pounds to kilograms, you can use the conversion factor: 1 pound is approximately equal to 0.453592 kilograms. Therefore, 11 pounds is equal to 11 * 0.453592 = 4.989512, which is approximately 5.5 kilograms. The correct answer is 5.5 kilograms. Choice A is incorrect as it rounds down and doesn't account for the decimals in the conversion. Choices C and D are significantly higher than the correct answer and are clearly incorrect conversions.

3. Change 1/6 to a percent.

• A. 16.67%
• B. 15%
• C. 14%
• D. 17%

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To convert 1/6 to a percentage, you multiply 1/6 by 100. This gives you 16.67%. Choice A is correct. Choice B, 15%, is incorrect as it is the rounded value of 1/6 as a percentage. Choice C, 14%, and Choice D, 17%, are also incorrect as they do not represent the accurate conversion of 1/6 to a percentage.

4. A man is reading. He reads two chapters a day. How long will it take if there are 6 pages per chapter and 798 pages total?

• A. 66 & 1/2
• B. 399
• C. 75 & 1/2
• D. 133

Correct answer: A

Rationale: First, calculate how many pages the man reads per day. Since he reads two chapters a day and each chapter has 6 pages: 2 chapters/day × 6 pages/chapter = 12 pages/day Now, divide the total number of pages by the number of pages he reads per day: 798 pages ÷ 12 pages/day = 66 1/2 days Thus, it will take him 66 & 1/2 days to finish the book. Therefore, the correct answer is A. 66 & 1/2. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not correspond to the correct calculation based on the given information.

5. The formula for body mass index (BMI) is BMI = weight (kg) / height (m)^2. If a patient's BMI is 25 and their height is 1.7m, what is their weight?

• A. 34kg
• B. 45kg
• C. 56kg
• D. 68kg

Correct answer: D

Rationale: Given: BMI = 25 Height = 1.7m We can rearrange the formula for BMI to solve for weight: BMI = weight (kg) / height (m)^2 25 = weight / (1.7)^2 25 = weight / 2.89 Weight = 25 * 2.89 Weight = 72.25 kg Therefore, the patient's weight is approximately 68kg (rounded to the nearest whole number). Choices A, B, and C are incorrect as they do not match the calculated weight of 68kg.
