1. How many feet are equal to 1 yard?

• A. 4 feet
• B. 3 feet
• C. 2 feet
• D. 5 feet

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 3 feet. This is because 1 yard is equivalent to 3 feet. The conversion factor between yards and feet is 1 yard = 3 feet. Choice A (4 feet) is incorrect as it represents the conversion of 1 yard to 4 feet, which is inaccurate. Choice C (2 feet) is incorrect as it underestimates the number of feet in 1 yard. Choice D (5 feet) is incorrect as it overestimates the number of feet in 1 yard.

2. What is 0.5 liters in milliliters?

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

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To convert liters to milliliters, you need to multiply by 1000 because 1 liter is equal to 1000 milliliters. Therefore, when you convert 0.5 liters to milliliters, you get 500 milliliters (0.5 * 1000 = 500). This conversion is commonly used in various situations where different units of volume are required. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not follow the correct conversion factor between liters and milliliters.

3. What is 0.004 as a simplified ratio?

• A. 1:250
• B. 4:35
• C. 7:28
• D. 4:00

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To convert 0.004 to a ratio, we first express it as 4/1000, which simplifies to 1/250. Hence, 0.004 is equivalent to the simplified ratio of 1:250. Choice B, 4:35, is incorrect as it does not reflect the correct conversion. Choice C, 7:28, is incorrect because it does not represent the simplified ratio of 0.004. Choice D, 4:00, is incorrect as it does not simplify to the original decimal value.

4. How many centimeters are in 1 meter?

• A. 10 cm
• B. 100 cm
• C. 1,000 cm
• D. 10,000 cm

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 100 cm. 1 meter is equivalent to 100 centimeters. Choice A (10 cm) is incorrect as it represents the conversion of decimeters to centimeters. Choice C (1,000 cm) is incorrect as it represents the conversion of meters to millimeters. Choice D (10,000 cm) is incorrect as it represents the conversion of meters to centimeters with an extra zero.

5. How many liters are in 3,000 milliliters?

• A. 0.3 liters
• B. 30 liters
• C. 3 liters
• D. 0.03 liters

Correct answer: C

Rationale: To convert milliliters to liters, you need to divide by 1,000 since there are 1,000 milliliters in a liter. Therefore, 3,000 milliliters / 1,000 = 3 liters. Choice A '0.3 liters' is incorrect as it represents 300 milliliters, not 3,000. Choice B '30 liters' is incorrect as it is the result of multiplying by 10 instead of dividing by 1,000. Choice D '0.03 liters' is incorrect as it represents 30 milliliters, not 3,000.
