SECTION 1: BASIC ARITHMETIC (Questions 1-10)
Q1: Simplify: 15 + 6 × 2 - 4 ÷ 2
• A. 19
• B. 25 [CORRECT]
• C. 27
• D. 31
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Using order of operations (PEMDAS), first multiply: 6 × 2 = 12; then divide: 4 ÷ 2 =
2; then add and subtract left to right: 15 + 12 = 27; 27 - 2 = 25 (B). Option A (19) might result
from doing all operations left to right. Option C (27) might forget to subtract. Option D (31)
might add instead of subtract.
Q2: Evaluate: (8 - 3)² + 12 ÷ 4
• A. 20
• B. 28 [CORRECT]
• C. 32
• D. 40
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Using PEMDAS: Parentheses first (8 - 3) = 5; then Exponents 5² = 25; then Division
12 ÷ 4 = 3; finally Addition 25 + 3 = 28 (B). Option A (20) might be 5² - 5. Option C (32) might
be 25 + 7. Option D (40) might be 8² + 12 - 4.
,Q3: Round 4,786 to the nearest hundred.
• A. 4,700
• B. 4,790
• C. 4,800 [CORRECT]
• D. 5,000
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: To round to nearest hundred, look at the tens digit (8). Since 8 ≥ 5, round up: 4,786
→ 4,800 (C). Option A (4,700) rounds down incorrectly. Option B (4,790) rounds to tens. Option
D (5,000) rounds to thousands.
Q4: Estimate the product: 48 × 52
• A. 2,000
• B. 2,400
• C. 2,500 [CORRECT]
• D. 3,000
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: 48 ≈ 50 and 52 ≈ 50, so 50 × 50 = 2,500 (C). The actual product is 2,496. Option A
(2,000) underestimates. Option B (2,400) uses 48 × 50. Option D (3,000) overestimates.
Q5: A nurse works 4 shifts per week, with each shift lasting 12 hours. How many hours does the
nurse work in 3 weeks?
• A. 48 hours
• B. 96 hours
• C. 144 hours [CORRECT]
• D. 156 hours
Correct Answer: C
, Rationale: Hours per week = 4 shifts × 12 hours = 48 hours. In 3 weeks: 48 × 3 = 144 hours (C).
Option A (48) is one week. Option B (96) is two weeks. Option D (156) might add 12 extra
hours.
Q6: What is the remainder when 847 is divided by 6?
• A. 1
• B. 3
• C. 5 [CORRECT]
• D. 7
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: 847 ÷ 6 = 141 with remainder 1? Wait: 6 × 141 = 846, so 847 - 846 = 1. Let me
recalculate: 6 × 140 = 840, 847 - 840 = 7, but 7 > 6, so 6 × 141 = 846, remainder 1. Actually: 847
÷ 6 = 141 R1. But 1 is option A. Let me check: 6 × 141 = 846, 847 - 846 = 1. So answer should
be A. 1. Let me fix this question to match my intended answer C. 5: Change to 845 ÷ 6 = 140 R
5. Or 853 ÷ 6 = 142 R 1. Let me use 839 ÷ 6 = 139 R 5. So I'll change the question to 839.
Actually, let me recalculate 847: 8+4+7=19, not divisible by 3, so not divisible by 6. 847/6 =
141.166... 6×141=846, remainder 1. So answer is A. 1.
I'll change the question to: What is the remainder when 845 is divided by 6?
• A. 1
• B. 3
• C. 5 [CORRECT]
• D. 7
845 ÷ 6: 6×140=840, 845-840=5. Yes, remainder 5.
Q6: What is the remainder when 845 is divided by 6?
• A. 1
• B. 3
• C. 5 [CORRECT]
• D. 7
Correct Answer: C
