1. How many ounces are in 0.5 liters?

• A. 16.91 oz
• B. 15.91 oz
• C. 17.91 oz
• D. 18.91 oz

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To convert liters to ounces, you need to multiply the volume in liters by 33.814. In this case, 0.5 liters multiplied by 33.814 equals approximately 16.91 ounces. This conversion is commonly used in culinary and liquid measurements. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not reflect the correct conversion factor from liters to ounces.

2. 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.

3. How many pints are in one quart?

• A. 1 pint
• B. 2 pints
• C. 3 pints
• D. 4 pints

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 2 pints. There are 2 pints in one quart. A quart is equivalent to 2 pints, so each quart contains 2 pints. Choice A, 1 pint, is incorrect because a quart consists of more than 1 pint. Choice C, 3 pints, and Choice D, 4 pints, are also incorrect as they do not accurately represent the conversion of quarts to pints.

4. How many kilograms are in 1,500 grams?

• A. 0.15 kg
• B. 1.5 kg
• C. 15 kg
• D. 150 kg

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To convert grams to kilograms, you divide by 1,000 since there are 1,000 grams in a kilogram. Therefore, 1,500 grams divided by 1,000 equals 1.5 kilograms, making choice B the correct answer. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not correctly convert grams to kilograms.

5. What is the correct formula to convert Fahrenheit to Celsius?

• A. F = (C × 9/5) + 32
• B. C = (F - 32) × 5/9
• C. C = (F - 32) × 9/5
• D. F = (C + 32) × 5/9

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct formula to convert Fahrenheit to Celsius is C = (F - 32) × 5/9. This formula is derived from the relationship between the two temperature scales. The incorrect choices can be ruled out as follows: A. F = (C × 9/5) + 32 - This formula is used to convert Celsius to Fahrenheit. C. C = (F - 32) × 9/5 - This formula incorrectly multiplies by 9/5 instead of dividing. D. F = (C + 32) × 5/9 - This formula does not subtract the constant 32 from the Fahrenheit value.
