Sample Computational Questions questions with answers and explanations

Board-style items taken from the Crop Protection bank. Every answer is explained, which is the part that makes a review question worth doing twice.

  1. Entomology | Pest population density — A crop field sample of 10 m² contained 24 insects. What is the pest population density?

    • A. 2.4 insects/m² correct
    • B. 1.2 insects/m²
    • C. 1.8 insects/m²
    • D. 1.9 insects/m²

    Why: Density=24÷10=2.4 insects/m².

  2. Entomology | Pest population density — The pest population density in a crop field is 8 insects/m². How many insects are expected in 3 m²?

    • A. 12 insects
    • B. 24 insects correct
    • C. 18 insects
    • D. 19 insects

    Why: Count=8×3=24.

  3. Entomology | Pest population density — A scout counted 30 insects where the pest population density was 15 insects/m². What area was sampled?

    • A. 1.0 m²
    • B. 1.5 m²
    • C. 2.0 m² correct
    • D. 1.6 m²

    Why: Area=30÷15=2.0 m².

  4. Entomology | Pest population density — Four quadrats in a crop field contained 12, 14, 6, and 8 insects; each quadrat was 1 m². What is overall pest population density?

    • A. 5.0 insects/m²
    • B. 7.5 insects/m²
    • C. 8.0 insects/m²
    • D. 10.0 insects/m² correct

    Why: Total count=40; total area=4; density=10.0 insects/m².

  5. Entomology | Pest population density — Management A produced 10 insects/m² and Management B 5 insects/m² in a crop field. What is the absolute density difference?

    • A. 5.0 insects/m² correct
    • B. 2.5 insects/m²
    • C. 3.8 insects/m²
    • D. 4.0 insects/m²

    Why: Difference=|10−5|=5.0 insects/m².

  6. Entomology | Pest population density — A crop field averages 12 insects/m² across 0.5 ha. If density is uniform, approximately how many insects are present?

    • A. 30,000 insects
    • B. 60,000 insects correct
    • C. 45,000 insects
    • D. 48,000 insects

    Why: Area=0.5×10,000=5,000 m²; count=12×area=60,000.

  7. Entomology | Percent infestation — In a crop field, 30 infested plants were recorded out of 120 plants examined. What is the percent infestation?

    • A. 35.0%
    • B. 15.0%
    • C. 25.0% correct
    • D. 30.0%

    Why: Percent infestation=(30÷120)×100=25.0%.

  8. Entomology | Percent infestation — A crop field has 120 plants examined. If the percent infestation is 62.5%, how many infested plants does this represent?

    • A. 38
    • B. 56
    • C. 60
    • D. 75 correct

    Why: Number=62.5%×120=75.
