1. What is the equivalent of 3.54 millimeters in meters (m)?

• A. 0.0354 m
• B. 0.00354 m
• C. 35.4 m
• D. 0.035 m

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To convert millimeters to meters, you need to divide by 1,000 since there are 1,000 millimeters in a meter. Therefore, 3.54 mm ÷ 1,000 = 0.00354 meters. Choice A (0.0354 m) is incorrect as it is 10 times the correct conversion. Choice C (35.4 m) is incorrect as it would be the equivalent of 35,400 millimeters. Choice D (0.035 m) is also incorrect as it is 100 times greater than the correct conversion.

2. How many ounces is equal to 1 gram?

• A. 0.015 ounces
• B. 0.035 ounces
• C. 0.045 ounces
• D. 0.055 ounces

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To convert grams to ounces, you need to multiply the weight in grams by 0.035 to get the equivalent weight in ounces. Therefore, 1 gram is equal to 0.035 ounces. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect conversions and do not accurately represent the conversion factor from grams to ounces.

3. Convert 0.2 liters to milliliters.

• A. 20 ml
• B. 200 ml
• C. 2 ml
• D. 2000 ml

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To convert 0.2 liters to milliliters, you need to multiply by 1000 because there are 1000 milliliters in 1 liter. Therefore, 0.2 liters x 1000 = 200 ml. Choice A (20 ml) is incorrect because it represents 0.02 liters, not 0.2 liters. Choice C (2 ml) is incorrect as it represents 0.002 liters. Choice D (2000 ml) is incorrect as it represents 2 liters, not 0.2 liters.

4. Convert 0.2 liters to milliliters. What is the equivalent volume?

• A. 20 ml
• B. 200 ml
• C. 2 ml
• D. 2000 ml

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To convert 0.2 liters to milliliters, you need to multiply by 1,000 because there are 1,000 milliliters in a liter. So, 0.2 * 1,000 = 200 milliliters. Therefore, the correct answer is 200 ml. Choice A (20 ml) is incorrect because it represents 0.02 liters, not 0.2 liters. Choice C (2 ml) is incorrect as it represents 0.002 liters. Choice D (2000 ml) is incorrect as it represents 2 liters, not 0.2 liters.

5. What is 0.2 mg converted to mcg?

• A. 200 mcg
• B. 20 mcg
• C. 2000 mcg
• D. 2 mcg

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To convert milligrams (mg) to micrograms (mcg), you need to multiply by 1000 because there are 1000 micrograms in 1 milligram. Therefore, 0.2 mg * 1000 = 200 mcg. This is the correct conversion. Choice B (20 mcg) is incorrect because it does not account for multiplying by 1000. Choice C (2000 mcg) is incorrect as it mistakenly multiplies by 10 instead of 1000. Choice D (2 mcg) is incorrect as it does not involve any conversion from milligrams to micrograms.
