Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To convert meters to centimeters, we know that 1 meter is equal to 100 centimeters. So, to find how many centimeters are in 7 meters, we multiply 7 by 100, which equals 700 centimeters. Therefore, the correct answer is C. Choice A is incorrect because it doesn't account for the conversion factor between meters and centimeters. Choice B is incorrect as it only considers 1 meter as 10 centimeters instead of 100. Choice D is incorrect as it overestimates the conversion, as 7 meters is not equal to 7000 centimeters.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To calculate the percentage of Dr. Lee's patients hospitalized, we need to find 5% of the 30% who developed an infection. 5% of 30% is 1.5%. Therefore, the correct answer is A: 1.50%. Choice B (5%) is incorrect because it represents the percentage of patients who developed an infection, not those hospitalized. Choice C (15%) is incorrect as it is the total percentage of patients who developed an infection, not just those hospitalized. Choice D (30%) is incorrect as it represents the initial percentage of patients who developed an infection, not those hospitalized.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: To find the average weight of each item, we first subtract Jerry's weight from the elevator's weight limit: 800 - 200 = 600 pounds. Then, we divide this by the number of items (4): 600 / 4 = 150 pounds. This means each item should weigh 150 pounds on average to not exceed the weight limit. Choice B (150 pounds) is correct. Choice A (128 pounds) is too light, which would allow the elevator's weight limit to be exceeded. Choice C (175 pounds) and choice D (180 pounds) are too heavy, which would also exceed the weight limit.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: The mode is equal to the range. In this case, the mode is the value that appears most frequently in the data set. The mode for the given data set is 29, as it appears twice. The range is the difference between the highest and lowest values in the data set. In this case, the range is 46 - 17 = 29. Therefore, the mode (29) is equal to the range (29), making option D the correct choice. A: The mean is less than the median - This is incorrect as the mean is calculated by adding all values and dividing by the total number of values, while the median is the middle value when the data is arranged in order. In this case, the mean is greater than the median. B: The mode is greater than the median - This is incorrect as the mode (29) is equal to the median (also 29). C: The mode is less than the mean,
