Arkansas Cosmetology Practice Exam

How does every additional 50 square feet of space in the practical training area affect the school?

1. Increases the enrollment capacity by one

2. Increases the enrollment capacity by two

3. Reduces the required number of instructors

4. Does not affect the enrollment capacity

The correct answer is: Increases the enrollment capacity by one

One could think that since the practical training area is increasing in size with an additional 50 square feet, the enrollment capacity should increase by an extra number of students not just one. However, this is not the case. Just adding 50 square feet does not necessarily mean the school can fit more students in that space. The correct answer is option A, as it takes into consideration other factors such as the layout and design of the space, the type of training being conducted, and safety regulations that may limit the number of students in a given area. Therefore, increasing the practical training area by 50 square feet can only accommodate one extra student. Options B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not take into consideration these factors and assume a direct correlation between space and enrollment capacity.
