1. How many grams are in one kilogram?

• A. 100 grams
• B. 1000 grams
• C. 500 grams
• D. 2000 grams

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 1000 grams. This is because by definition, 1 kilogram is equal to 1000 grams. Choice A, 100 grams, is incorrect as it underestimates the actual conversion. Choice C, 500 grams, and Choice D, 2000 grams, are also incorrect as they do not align with the correct conversion factor of 1 kilogram to 1000 grams.

2. Convert 25 millimeters to centimeters.

• A. 250 cm
• B. 25 cm
• C. 2.5 mm
• D. 25 mm

Correct answer: D

Rationale: To convert millimeters to centimeters, you need to divide by 10 because there are 10 millimeters in one centimeter. Therefore, 25 millimeters is equal to 25/10 = 2.5 centimeters, making choice D the correct answer. Choice A (250 cm) is incorrect as it incorrectly multiplies instead of dividing by 10. Choice B (25 cm) is also incorrect as it doesn't convert millimeters to centimeters. Choice C (2.5 mm) is incorrect as it provides the measurement in millimeters rather than centimeters.

3. Convert 0.004 to a ratio.

• A. 1:250
• B. 4:200
• C. 2:400
• D. 9:200

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To convert 0.004 to a ratio, we can express it as 4/1000, which simplifies to 1/250. Therefore, the correct ratio is 1:250. Choice B (4:200) is incorrect as it simplifies to 1:50, not 1:250. Choice C (2:400) simplifies to 1:200, which is also incorrect. Choice D (9:200) simplifies to a ratio greater than 1:1, which is not equivalent to 1:250.

4. What is 0.5 liters in milliliters?

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

Correct answer: A

Rationale: 0.5 liters is equivalent to 500 milliliters. The conversion from liters to milliliters involves multiplying by 1000 since there are 1000 milliliters in a liter. Therefore, the correct answer is 500 ml. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not correctly convert liters to milliliters. 50 ml is the conversion for 0.05 liters, 5 ml for 0.005 liters, and 0.5 ml for 0.0005 liters.

5. What is 0.07 as a simplified fraction?

• A. 7/100
• B. 7/50
• C. 7/25
• D. 7/10

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The decimal 0.07 can be expressed as the fraction 7/100, where 7 is the numerator and 100 is the denominator. To simplify the fraction, you divide both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which in this case is 1. Therefore, 7/100 is already in its simplest form and cannot be further simplified. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect fractions as they do not represent the decimal 0.07.
