1. C; It’s less than a month which means it’s more predictable of it being a full moon. It isn’t D as that’s a month and when that passes, it will be third quarter again; Seeing as the Third quarter is after the full moon.

2. A; Each moon phase is about 7 days, so the transition of the third quarter to new moon would take about 7 days.
