Answer to Question 1

C
Feedback:
Some illnesses cause irritation, dryness, or brownish deposits (sordes) on the tongue and the mouth's mucous membrane. Food particles lodged between the teeth cause decay, breath odor (halitosis), and inflammation of the tooth sockets (pyorrhea, periodontitis). Flossing also removes debris that could cause tooth decay (dental caries) and offensive breath odor.

Answer to Question 2

C
Feedback:
The numerator refers to a part of the whole and is the top number. The denominator refers to the total number of parts and is the number on the bottom. Decimal fractions are fractions in which 10 is always the denominator.
