1. What is 0.6 liters converted to milliliters?

• A. 600 ml
• B. 60 ml
• C. 6 ml
• D. 0.6 ml

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To convert 0.6 liters to milliliters, you need to multiply by 1,000 since there are 1,000 milliliters in a liter. Therefore, 0.6 liters equals 600 milliliters. Choice B (60 ml) is incorrect as it is a conversion of 0.06 liters, not 0.6 liters. Choice C (6 ml) is incorrect as it represents a conversion of 0.006 liters, not 0.6 liters. Choice D (0.6 ml) is incorrect as it is the original amount in milliliters, not the converted amount from liters.

2. How many centimeters are in one meter?

• A. 1/10 cm
• B. 100 cm
• C. 10 cm
• D. 1000 cm

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 100 cm. One meter is equivalent to 100 centimeters. This conversion is based on the metric system, where the prefix 'centi-' represents one hundredth. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not accurately reflect the conversion of meters to centimeters. Choice A, '1/10 cm,' is incorrect as it represents a fraction of a centimeter, not the full conversion from meters to centimeters. Choice C, '10 cm,' is incorrect as it represents the conversion from decimeters to centimeters, not meters to centimeters. Choice D, '1000 cm,' is incorrect as it represents the conversion from meters to millimeters, not centimeters.

3. What is 1500 milliliters in liters?

• A. 1.5 liters
• B. 0.15 liters
• C. 15 liters
• D. 0.015 liters

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To convert milliliters to liters, you need to divide by 1000 since there are 1000 milliliters in 1 liter. Therefore, 1500 milliliters divided by 1000 equals 1.5 liters, making option A the correct answer. Option B, 0.15 liters, is incorrect as it would be the conversion of 150 milliliters. Option C, 15 liters, is incorrect because it would be the conversion of 15,000 milliliters. Option D, 0.015 liters, is incorrect as it would be the conversion of 15 milliliters.

4. Convert 0.04 grams to milligrams.

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

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To convert 0.04 grams to milligrams, you need to multiply by 1000, not 10000. Therefore, 0.04 grams equals 40 milligrams (0.04g * 1000 = 40mg). Choice B, '4 mg,' is incorrect as it reflects the value as if it was in grams. Choice C, '400 mg,' is incorrect as it incorrectly multiplies by 100 instead of 1000. Choice D, '0.4 mg,' is incorrect as it incorrectly moves the decimal point to the right instead of multiplying by 1000.

5. What is 0.45 liters in milliliters?

• A. 450 ml
• B. 45 ml
• C. 4.5 ml
• D. 0.45 ml

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To convert liters to milliliters, you need to multiply by 1000 since 1 liter equals 1000 milliliters. Therefore, 0.45 liters is equivalent to 450 milliliters. Choice B, 45 ml, is incorrect as it represents the conversion of 0.045 liters to milliliters. Choice C, 4.5 ml, is incorrect as it represents the conversion of 0.0045 liters to milliliters. Choice D, 0.45 ml, is incorrect as it is the initial quantity in milliliters and not the result of the conversion.
