Directions
For questions 16 through 20, solve the problem and record your answer in the
spaces provided on the answer sheet, as described in the following directions and
examples.

1. Although not required, it is suggested that your answer be recorded in the boxes
at the top of the columns to help fill in the bubbles accurately. You will receive
credit only if the bubbles are filled in correctly.

2. Mark no more than one bubble in any column.

3. No question has a negative answer.

4. Some problems may have more than one correct answer. In such cases, indicate
only one answer.

5. Mixed numbers such as three and one half must be recorded as 3.5 or

seven slash two. (If three, one, slash, two, is recorded in the spaces

provided on the answer sheet, it will be interpreted as thirty one halves, not

three and one half.)

6. Decimal answers: If you obtain a decimal answer with more digits than the
spaces on the answer sheet can accommodate, it may be either rounded or
truncated, but it must fill all four spaces.

Page 18
The following are four examples of how to record your answer in the spaces
provided. Keep in mind that there are four spaces provided to record each answer.

Examples 1 and 2

Begin skippable figure description.

Example 1: If your answer is a fraction such as seven twelfths, it should be
recorded as follows. Enter 7 in the first space, the fraction bar (a slash) in the
second space, 1 in the third space, and 2 in the fourth space. All four spaces would
be used in this example.

Example 2: If your answer is a decimal value such as 2.5, it could be recorded as

follows. Enter 2 in the second space, the decimal point in the third space, and 5 in
the fourth space. Only three spaces would be used in this example.

Example 4

Note: You may start your answers in any column, space permitting. Columns you
don’t need to use should be left blank.

Begin skippable figure description.

Example 4: It is not necessary to begin recording answers in the first space unless
all four spaces are needed. For example, if your answer is 201, you may record 2 in
the second space, 0 in the third space, and 1 in the fourth space. Alternatively, you
may record 2 in the first space, 0 in the second space, and 1 in the third space.
Spaces not needed should be left blank.
