PPL Questions help

Hey folks,

Im struggling to get my head around these tyoe of questions, im kind of there but would be beneficial if someone could explain them. Im aware that 1mb roughly equates to 30ft at lower levels.

Q - You are setting your altimeter at an aerodrome, where the elevation is 18ft. The QHN you have been given is 1005mb. What would you expect the aerodrome QFE to be?
A) 1006mb B) 1003mb C)1004mb D)999mb


Q- You are flying at FL55, what is the altitude of your aircraft if the QNH is 1008mb?
A) 5200ft B) 5350ft C) 5650ft D) 5750ft


there was one more question that got me regarding the quadrantal rule and a mb setting but i cant find it, once i do il post that as well.

Ewan
