Answer to Question 1

FALSE
Writers must use numerals when the number is a significant statistic or deserves special
emphasis. They must use words for numbers in a formal message and for numbers that are
not significant and need no special attention.

Answer to Question 2

FALSE
This phrasing does not demonstrate the correct use of abbreviations before names. Do not
use Dr. before a person's name that is followed by an abbreviation of an academic degree or
religious order.
