1. Convert 0.2 liters to milliliters. What is the equivalent volume?

• A. 20 ml
• B. 200 ml
• C. 2 ml
• D. 2000 ml

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To convert 0.2 liters to milliliters, you need to multiply by 1,000 because there are 1,000 milliliters in a liter. So, 0.2 * 1,000 = 200 milliliters. Therefore, the correct answer is 200 ml. Choice A (20 ml) is incorrect because it represents 0.02 liters, not 0.2 liters. Choice C (2 ml) is incorrect as it represents 0.002 liters. Choice D (2000 ml) is incorrect as it represents 2 liters, not 0.2 liters.

• B. 2,000 mg
• C. 20 mg
• D. 20,000 mg

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To convert grams to milligrams, you need to multiply by 1,000 since there are 1,000 milligrams in a gram. Therefore, 2 grams is equal to 2,000 milligrams. Choice A (200 mg) is incorrect as it represents 0.2 grams. Choice C (20 mg) is incorrect as it represents 0.02 grams. Choice D (20,000 mg) is incorrect as it represents 20 grams.

• A. 354 m
• B. 354 m
• C. 354,000 km
• D. 35,400 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, 354,000 mm ÷ 1,000 = 354 meters. Choice A, '354 m,' is correct as it represents the converted value. Choice C, '354,000 km,' is incorrect as it suggests converting to kilometers instead of meters.

Choice A is incorrect as 2 quarts are half of a gallon, not a whole gallon. Choice C is incorrect as 3 quarts is less than a gallon. Choice D is incorrect as it represents only one quart, whereas the question asks for the quantity in a gallon.
