Question 1 of 5
In Mr. Garcia's class, two-thirds of the students are boys. If there are 27 students in the class, how many of them are girls?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: If two-thirds of the students are boys, then one-third of the students must be girls. One-third of 27 is 9, so there are 9 girls in Mr. Garcia's class. Therefore, the correct answer is 9. Choice A is incorrect because it is too low; only one-third of the students are girls. Choices C and D are incorrect as they do not reflect the correct calculation based on the given information in the question.
Question 2 of 5
The formula for calculating heart rate is HR = (220 - age) x 0.65. If a patient's heart rate is 136.5, what is their age?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Rationale: Given formula: HR = (220 - age) * 0.65 Given heart rate: HR = 136.5 Substitute the given heart rate into the formula: 136.5 = (220 - age) * 0.65 Solve for age: 136.5 = 143 - 0.65age 0.65age = 143 - 136.5 0.65age = 6.5 age = 6.5 / 0.65 age = 10 Therefore, the patient's age is 50 (option C).
