Creating a multiple choice question in LaTeX

Question

I am trying to make a multiple choice question in LaTeX. I am a little confused as to whether

\begin{question}{MultipleChoice}

is something that LaTeX can handle by default or do I need extra packages, descriptions, ect...(I am super new to LaTex).

That being said, if I run the following code I do not get a multiple choice question, but rather an error that says 'lonely \item - perhaps missing a list environment.

Thanks in advance for your time and patience!

  %%%% ENVIRONMENT FOR LIST FOR QUESTIONS LIST %%%%
    \newenvironment{questions}{ %   %%%% Begin preliminary environment code
        \begin{list}{ %     %%%% Begin list item label code
            \bfseries\upshape\arabic{qcounter}:
        }{ %    %%%% Begin list item body code
            \usecounter{qcounter}
            \setlength{\labelwidth}{1in}
            \setlength{\leftmargin}{0.25in}
            \setlength{\labelsep}{0.5ex}
            \setlength{\itemsep}{2em}
        } %%%%% End list item body code
    }{        %%%%% Begin wrapup environment code
        \end{list}
    } %%%%% End wrapup environment code

    %%%% ENVIRONMENT FOR A SINGLE QUESTION %%%%
    \newenvironment{question}{\item{}}{}



    \begin{question}{MultipleChoice}
    \qutext{$3\log x-2\log y=$}
    \choice*{$\log\left(\displaystyle\frac{x^3}{y^2}\right)$}
    \choice{$\log(x^3y^2)$}
    \choice{$\log(3x-2y)$}
    \choice{$\log(x^3-y^2)$}
    \end{question}

Better use the exam class
