1. What is 4.6 rounded to the nearest integer?

• A. 3
• B. 4
• C. 5
• D. 6

Correct answer: C

Rationale: When rounding a decimal number to the nearest integer, if the decimal part is 0.5 or greater, we round up to the next integer; if it is less than 0.5, we round down. In this case, 4.6 is closer to 5 than to 4 because it is exactly halfway between the two integers. Therefore, when rounding 4.6 to the nearest integer, we round up to 5. Choice A (3), B (4), and D (6) are incorrect as they are not the nearest integer to 4.6.

2. What is the solution to 4 x 7 + (25 – 21)²?

• A. 512
• B. 36
• C. 44
• D. 22

Correct answer: C

Rationale: To find the solution, first solve the expression inside the parentheses: 25 - 21 = 4. Then, square the result from the parentheses: 4² = 16. Next, perform the multiplication: 4 x 7 = 28. Finally, add the results: 28 + 16 = 44. Therefore, the correct answer is 44. Choice A (512), Choice B (36), and Choice D (22) are incorrect as they do not follow the correct order of operations for solving the given mathematical expression.

3. How should 0.80 be written as a percent?

• A. 40%
• B. 125%
• C. 90%
• D. 80%

Correct answer: D

Rationale: To convert a decimal to a percent, move the decimal point two places to the right. Therefore, 0.80 written as a percent is 80%. Choice A is incorrect as it represents 40%. Choice B is incorrect as it represents 125%. Choice C is incorrect as it represents 90%.

4. There are 800 students enrolled in four allied health programs at a local community college. The percentage of students in each program is displayed in the pie chart. What is the number of students enrolled in the respiratory care program?

• A. 336
• B. 152
• C. 144
• D. 168

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To find the number of students enrolled in the respiratory care program, you need to calculate 19% of 800. 19% of 800 is (19/100) * 800 = 152 students. Therefore, the correct answer is B. Choice A (336), Choice C (144), and Choice D (168) are incorrect as they do not represent the correct percentage of students enrolled in the respiratory care program as indicated by the pie chart.

5. 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.
