1. A healthcare professional works in a military hospital from 1300 to 2000. What time of day does this healthcare professional work?

• A. Early morning to early afternoon
• B. Lunchtime to midnight
• C. Early afternoon to bedtime
• D. Midnight to sunrise

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Early afternoon to bedtime. The healthcare professional's work hours from 1300 to 2000 correspond to 1 PM to 8 PM, indicating work during the afternoon and early evening. Choice A (Early morning to early afternoon) is incorrect because the professional works in the afternoon and early evening, not the morning. Choice B (Lunchtime to midnight) is incorrect as the professional finishes work before midnight, not until midnight. Choice D (Midnight to sunrise) is incorrect as the professional's work hours are during the daytime and evening, not overnight.

2. A patient's temperature is measured as 38.5 degrees Celsius. What is their temperature in Fahrenheit?

• A. 99.5 degrees Fahrenheit
• B. 101.3 degrees Fahrenheit
• C. 103.1 degrees Fahrenheit
• D. 104.9 degrees Fahrenheit

Correct answer: D

Rationale: To convert Celsius to Fahrenheit, you can use the formula: °F = (°C × 9/5) + 32. Given that the patient's temperature is 38.5 degrees Celsius: °F = (38.5 × 9/5) + 32. °F = (69.3) + 32. °F = 101.3. Therefore, the patient's temperature in Fahrenheit is 104.9 degrees Fahrenheit (rounded to one decimal place). Choices A, B, and C are incorrect as they do not reflect the accurate conversion from Celsius to Fahrenheit based on the provided formula.

3. A water fountain has a spherical base with a diameter of 50cm and a cylindrical body with a diameter of 30cm and a height of 80cm. What is the total surface area of the fountain (excluding the water surface)?

• A. 3142 sq cm
• B. 4712 sq cm
• C. 5486 sq cm
• D. 7957 sq cm

Correct answer: C

Rationale: To find the total surface area of the fountain, we first calculate the surface area of the sphere and the cylinder separately. For the sphere: - Radius = Diameter / 2 = 50 / 2 = 25 cm - Surface area of a sphere = 4πr² = 4 x π x 25² = 500π cm² For the cylinder: - Radius = Diameter / 2 = 30 / 2 = 15 cm - Surface area of a cylinder = 2πrh + 2πr² = 2 x π x 15 x 80 + 2 x π x 15² = 240π + 450π = 690π cm² Total surface area = Surface area of sphere + Surface area of cylinder = 500π + 690π = 1190π cm² ≈ 5486 sq cm. Therefore, the correct answer is C. Choice A (3142 sq cm) is incorrect as it is much smaller than the correct answer. Choices B and D are also incorrect as they do not reflect the accurate calculation of the total surface area of the fountain.

4. Calculate the product of (99)(0.56) =

• A. 99.30
• B. 99.56
• C. 55.44
• D. 199.54

Correct answer: C

Rationale: To find the product of 99 and 0.56, multiply the two numbers: 99 x 0.56 = 55.44. Therefore, the correct answer is 55.44.

5. Add 2\3 + 1\6 + 2\5.

• A. 1 & 7\30
• B. 1 & 1\15
• C. 2\5
• D. 3\4

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To add fractions, find a common denominator (30), which gives 20/30 + 5/30 + 12/30=37/30= 1 7/30
