1. What is the result of dividing 8 by 4?

• A. 2
• B. 4
• C. 6
• D. 8

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To find the result of dividing 8 by 4, we divide 8 by 4, which equals 2. Choice B (4) is incorrect because it is the divisor, not the result of the division. Choice C (6) is incorrect as it is not the correct quotient. Choice D (8) is incorrect as it is the dividend, not the result of the division.

2. What is the range in the number of flights the flight attendant made?

• A. 20
• B. 25
• C. 29
• D. 32

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The range is calculated as the difference between the largest and smallest values in a dataset. In this case, the largest number of flights made by the flight attendant in a month was 79, and the smallest number was 54. Therefore, the range is 79 - 54 = 25. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect as they do not reflect the correct calculation of the range based on the given data.

3. Calculate the sum of the numbers from 1 to 6:

• A. 30
• B. 21
• C. 15
• D. 13

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To find the sum of numbers from 1 to 6, we add them together: 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 = 21. Therefore, the correct answer is 21. Choice A (30) is incorrect because it is not the sum of the numbers 1 to 6. Choice C (15) is incorrect as it is the sum of numbers 1 to 5. Choice D (13) is incorrect as it is the sum of numbers 1 to 4, not 1 to 6.

4. Three friends are sharing a burger. One friend eats a quarter of the burger. The other two friends equally divide the rest among themselves. What portion of the burger did each of the other two friends receive?

• A. 6-Jan
• B. 4-Jan
• C. 4-Mar
• D. 8-Mar

Correct answer: D

Rationale: After one friend eats a quarter of the burger, 3/4 of the burger remains. Dividing this equally between the other two friends means each receives 3/8 of the whole burger. Therefore, the correct answer is 8-Mar. Choice A (6-Jan), Choice B (4-Jan), and Choice C (4-Mar) are incorrect as they do not accurately represent the portion each of the other two friends receives after one friend consumes a quarter of the burger.

5. 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?

• A. 0.07
• B. 0.13
• C. 0.65
• D. 0.8

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.
