1. How many centimeters are in 4 meters?

• A. 40 cm
• B. 400 cm
• C. 4 cm
• D. 0.4 cm

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To convert meters to centimeters, you multiply by 100. In this case, 4 meters x 100 = 400 centimeters. Therefore, the correct answer is 400 cm. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not correctly convert meters to centimeters.

2. What does the prefix 'Tera' refer to?

• A. 10^12
• B. 10^9
• C. 10^15
• D. 10^6

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The prefix 'Tera' corresponds to a factor of 10^12, which is equivalent to one trillion. It is commonly used in various fields like data storage to denote large quantities. Choice B, '10^9,' is incorrect as it corresponds to the prefix 'Giga.' Choice C, '10^15,' is incorrect as it corresponds to the prefix 'Peta.' Choice D, '10^6,' is incorrect as it corresponds to the prefix 'Mega.' Therefore, the correct answer is A.

3. What is 0.004 as a ratio?

• A. 5:10
• B. 1:250
• C. 7:28
• D. 4:00

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To convert 0.004 to a ratio, first express it as a fraction by writing it as 4/1000. Simplifying this fraction gives 1/250. Therefore, 0.004 as a ratio is 1:250. Choice A (5:10) simplifies to 1:2, not equivalent to 0.004. Choice C (7:28) does not simplify to a value close to 0.004. Choice D (4:00) is not a valid ratio representation of 0.004.

4. What is the term for the amount of space an object occupies?

• A. mass
• B. volume
• C. density
• D. area

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct term for the amount of space an object occupies is 'volume.' Volume refers to the three-dimensional space that an object occupies and is measured in cubic units like cubic meters. 'Mass' (Choice A) refers to the amount of matter in an object, 'density' (Choice C) is the mass per unit volume of a substance, and 'area' (Choice D) is the measurement of the extent of a surface.

5. Convert 0.5 liters to milliliters.

• A. 50 ml
• B. 500 ml
• C. 5 ml
• D. 0.5 ml

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To convert liters to milliliters, you need to multiply by 1000 as there are 1000 milliliters in 1 liter. Therefore, when converting 0.5 liters to milliliters, the correct answer is 0.5 x 1000 = 500 ml. Choice A (50 ml) is incorrect because it represents the conversion of 0.05 liters, not 0.5 liters. Choice C (5 ml) is incorrect as it represents the conversion of 0.005 liters. Choice D (0.5 ml) is incorrect as it does not reflect the correct conversion from liters to milliliters.
