What does LAV stand for?

• A. Law Enforcement Officer
• B. Maximum
• C. Lavatory
• D. Minimum

Answer: (C)

Interpreting common abbreviations is what this item tests. LAV is the short form used for lavatory, the room with toilets. You’ll see LAV on signs in airports, ships, trains, or aircraft to indicate the bathroom. The other terms correspond to different abbreviations: Law Enforcement Officer is typically abbreviated LEO, Maximum is often written as MAX, and Minimum as MIN. Since the intended label for a toilet facility is lavatory, the correct interpretation is lavatory.
