Correct answer: Saturday appears twice
Saturday is listed twice — once with value 12 and once with value 20, which is a duplication error.
Question 7: A form shows a date of birth as 02/29/1995. What is wrong with this entry?
- The format should be YYYY/MM/DD

- February never has 29 days
- The month and day are reversed
Correct answer: 1995 was not a leap year so February 29 did not exist
1995 was not a leap year, so February 29, 1995 never existed; leap years are divisible by 4.
