1. Chan receives a bonus from his job. He pays 30% in taxes, donates 30% to charity, and uses another 25% to pay off an old debt. He has $600 remaining. What was the total amount of Chan's bonus?

Correct answer: D

Rationale: Chan has used 30% + 30% + 25% = 85% of his bonus, which leaves 15% remaining. Since 15% of his bonus is $600, you can find the total bonus amount by dividing $600 by 15% (or multiplying by 100/15), which equals $4,000. Therefore, the correct answer is $4,000. The other choices are incorrect because they do not accurately represent the total remaining amount after the specified deductions.

2. What is the median of the set of numbers {2, 3, 9, 12, 15}?

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The median represents the middle value in an ordered set of numbers. To find the median, the numbers need to be arranged in ascending order: {2, 3, 9, 12, 15}. Since the set has an odd number of elements, the median will be the middle value, which is 9 in this case. Choice A (3) and Choice D (15) are incorrect as they do not fall in the middle of the ordered set. Choice C (12) is also incorrect as it is not the middle value in this particular set.

3. What percentage of the staff is certified and available to work in the neonatal unit during the holiday if 35% are on vacation and 20% of the remainder are certified?

Correct answer: A

Rationale: After 35% of the staff are on vacation, 65% remain. Since 20% of the remaining staff are certified, you multiply 0.20 by 65% (0.20 * 65% = 0.13 or 13%). Therefore, the correct answer is 0.13 or 13%. Choices C and D are incorrect as they do not represent the correct calculation for the percentage of certified staff available. Choice B is incorrect because it incorrectly states the calculated percentage as 0.13 instead of 0.07.

4. What is the sixth number in the sequence 5, 6, 7, 8, 9?

Correct answer: C

Rationale: In the given sequence 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, the sixth number would come after 9, not after the fifth number in the sequence. To find the sixth number, we need to continue the pattern after 9. The next number after 9 would be 10, making it the sixth number in the sequence. Therefore, the correct answer is not listed among the choices provided. Choice A, 8, is the fifth number in the sequence. Choice B, 10, is the number right after the sixth number. Choice D, 12, is not in the sequence at all, making it incorrect. Thus, the correct answer is 11.

5. What is the simplified form of the expression (x^2 + 2x)/(x)?

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To simplify the expression (x^2 + 2x)/(x), we factor out x from the numerator to get x(x + 2) and then cancel the x in the denominator. This simplifies to x + 2, making choice A the correct answer. Choice B (x^2 + 2) is incorrect as it does not account for the division by x. Choice C (x(x + 2)) is also incorrect as it represents the factored form before cancellation. Choice D (1 + 2/x) is incorrect as it does not simplify the expression correctly.
