# 1 - "What's the right thing to do?" parece-me mais idiomática.
# 2 - Apesar de gramaticalmente corretas, o Google não encontrou nem uma nem outra.
Eu sugeriria:
"Did X circle the right answers on the test?"
"Did X get the right answers on the test?" --> Essa ganha para as demais.
"Did X write the right answers on the test?"
"Did X pick the right answers on the test?"
Curiosamente ou não, apareceram mais exemplos com "correct" do que com "right":
"Did X circle the correct answers on the test?"
"Did X mark the correct answers on the test?"
"Did X indicate the correct answers on the test?"
"Did X write the correct answers on the test?"
"Did X select the correct answers on the test?"
# 3 - No Google Ngram Viewer "Which pronunciation is the right one?" e "Which pronunciation is the correct one?" se equivalem:
Com right.
Com correct.
