Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Using Ngele's rule, add 7 days to the first day of the last menstrual period (LMP) to obtain the day (4 + 7 = 11). To determine the month, subtract 3 from the month of the LMP. (July is the seventh month, so 7  3 = 4 April.) Therefore, the estimated due date is April 11.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
She is in her fourth pregnancy, which means she is a gravida 4. Because she has delivered two children after 20 weeks' gestation, she is a para 2.
