A cylindrical container in a laboratory has a radius of 5 cm and a height of 12 cm. What is the maximum volume of liquid it can hold? (Use π ≈ 3.14)
Show answer details
Correct answer: C
The formula for the volume of a cylinder is V = πr²h.
Given r = 5 cm and h = 12 cm.
V = (3.14) * (5 cm)² * (12 cm)
V = 3.14 * 25 cm² * 12 cm
V = 78.5 cm² * 12 cm
V = 942 cm³. - 2
A clinic's monthly expenses increased from $15,000 to $18,000. To cover this, the clinic must increase its revenue. If last month's revenue was $22,000, by what percentage must the revenue increase to match the new expenses, assuming profit remains constant?
Show answer details
Correct answer: A
First, find the increase in expenses: $18,000 - $15,000 = $3,000. This is the amount the revenue must increase by. To find the percentage increase relative to the original revenue, use the formula: (Increase / Original Revenue) * 100. So, ($3,000 / $22,000) * 100 ≈ 0.1363 * 100 ≈ 13.6%.

A solution contains a salt to water ratio of 3:17. If you have 850 mL of water, how much salt (in mL) should you add to maintain the same ratio?
Show answer details
Correct answer: C
Set up a proportion using the given ratio of salt to water: 3/17 = x/850, where x is the amount of salt needed. Cross-multiply to solve for x: 17x = 3 * 850, which is 17x = 2550. Divide both sides by 17: x = 2550 / 17 = 150 mL.

A medical device is programmed to beep every 45 minutes. A second device is programmed to beep every 1 hour and 15 minutes. If they both beep together at 9:00 AM, at what time will they next beep together?

Correct answer: C
This problem requires finding the least common multiple (LCM). First, convert both times to minutes. Device 1: 45 minutes. Device 2: 1 hour 15 minutes = 60 + 15 = 75 minutes. Find the LCM of 45 and 75.
Multiples of 45: 45, 90, 135, 180, 225, ...
Multiples of 75: 75, 150, 225, ...
The LCM is 225 minutes. Convert 225 minutes to hours and minutes: 225 / 60 = 3 with a remainder of 45. So, 3 hours and 45 minutes. Add this to the start time: 9:00 AM + 3 hours 45 minutes = 12:45 PM. - 5
True or False: If a patient's temperature is 39°C, their temperature in Fahrenheit is greater than 102°F. (Use the formula F = 1.8C + 32)
Show answer details
Correct answer: A
Use the given formula to convert 39°C to Fahrenheit:
F = (1.8 * 39) + 32
F = 70.2 + 32
F = 102.2°F
Since 102.2°F is greater than 102°F, the statement is true. - 6
A pediatric nurse needs to administer a liquid medication based on a child's weight. The recommended dosage is 15 mg per kilogram of body weight. The child weighs 55 pounds. The medication is available in a concentration of 125 mg per 5 mL. How many milliliters of the medication should the nurse administer? (Use the conversion 1 kg = 2.2 lbs)
Show answer details
Correct answer: C
This is a multi-step problem. First, convert the child's weight from pounds to kilograms: 55 lbs / 2.2 lbs/kg = 25 kg. Next, calculate the total required dosage in mg: 25 kg * 15 mg/kg = 375 mg. Finally, use a proportion to find the volume in mL: (125 mg / 5 mL) = (375 mg / x mL). Cross-multiply to solve for x: 125x = 1875, so x = 1875 / 125 = 15 mL.

A hospital cafeteria is analyzing its daily soup sales. On a particular day, they sold 180 bowls of soup. 35% of the sales were Tomato soup, 1/4 were Chicken Noodle, and 1/6 were Lentil soup. The remaining bowls were Minestrone. How many bowls of Minestrone soup were sold?
Show answer details
Correct answer: B
First, calculate the number of bowls for each known soup type:
Tomato: 0.35 * 180 = 63 bowls.
Chicken Noodle: (1/4) * 180 = 45 bowls.
Lentil: (1/6) * 180 = 30 bowls.
Total known soups: 63 + 45 + 30 = 138 bowls.
Subtract this from the total to find the Minestrone bowls: 180 - 138 = 42 bowls. - 8
A physical therapist is designing a recovery plan. The plan requires a patient to increase their walking distance by 10% each week. If the patient's starting distance in week 1 is 1.5 miles, what is the total distance they will have walked by the end of week 3?
Show answer details
Correct answer: C
Calculate the distance for each week and then sum them:
Week 1: 1.5 miles
Week 2: 1.5 * 1.10 = 1.65 miles
Week 3: 1.65 * 1.10 = 1.815 miles
Total distance = 1.5 + 1.65 + 1.815 = 4.965 miles. - 9
A medical supply room has a shelf that is 3 1/2 feet long. If each supply box is 5 inches wide, what is the maximum number of boxes that can fit side-by-side on the shelf?
Show answer details
Correct answer: B
First, convert the shelf length to a single unit, inches. Since 1 foot = 12 inches, the length is 3.5 feet * 12 inches/foot = 42 inches. Next, divide the total length by the width of one box: 42 inches / 5 inches/box = 8.4 boxes. Since you cannot have a fraction of a box, the maximum number of whole boxes that can fit is 8.

The following chart shows the number of patients admitted to a hospital's cardiac unit over a 5-day period. What is the average number of patients admitted per day?
graph TD subgraph Cardiac Unit Admissions Day1[Monday: 24] Day2[Tuesday: 30] Day3[Wednesday: 28] Day4[Thursday: 35] Day5[Friday: 23] endShow answer details
Correct answer: D
To find the average (mean), sum the number of patients for each day and divide by the number of days.
Total patients = 24 + 30 + 28 + 35 + 23 = 140.
Number of days = 5.
Average = 140 / 5 = 28 patients per day.
