Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
When multiplying, decimal points do not have to be aligned. The decimal point in the answer is determined by the number of decimal points found to the right of the decimal point in the numbers multiplied.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
The infusion should be stopped and restarted in another location. Warm compresses are contraindicated. Repositioning the arm will not remedy the infiltration. The charge nurse can be notified after the fact.
