1. How many milliliters are in 1.5 liters?

• A. 15 mL
• B. 1,500 mL
• C. 150 mL
• D. 150,000 mL

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To convert liters to milliliters, you need to multiply by 1,000 since there are 1,000 milliliters in a liter. Therefore, 1.5 liters x 1,000 = 1,500 milliliters. Choice A, 15 mL, is incorrect as it represents the conversion of 0.015 liters. Choice C, 150 mL, is incorrect as it represents the conversion of 0.15 liters. Choice D, 150,000 mL, is incorrect as it represents the conversion of 150 liters.

2. What is the equivalent of 3,450 milliliters in liters (L)?

• A. 0.345 liters
• B. 3.45 liters
• C. 34.5 liters
• D. 345 liters

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To convert milliliters to liters, you need to divide by 1,000 since there are 1,000 milliliters in a liter. Therefore, 3,450 mL ÷ 1,000 = 3.45 liters. Choice A (0.345 liters) is incorrect as it incorrectly moves the decimal point. Choice C (34.5 liters) is incorrect as it overestimates the conversion. Choice D (345 liters) is incorrect as it overestimates by an order of magnitude.

3. Convert 3.75 liters to milliliters.

• A. 3.75 ml
• B. 375 ml
• C. 3750 ml
• D. 37.5 ml

Correct answer: C

Rationale: To convert liters to milliliters, you need to multiply by 1000 since there are 1000 milliliters in 1 liter. Therefore, 3.75 liters x 1000 = 3750 milliliters. This means that option C, 3750 ml, is the correct conversion. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because they do not reflect the correct conversion from liters to milliliters.

4. Convert 345,000 millimeters to centimeters (cm).

• A. 34,500 cm
• B. 3,450 cm
• C. 345,000 cm
• D. 345,000,000 cm

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To convert millimeters to centimeters, you need to divide by 10 since there are 10 millimeters in 1 centimeter. Therefore, 345,000 mm ÷ 10 = 34,500 cm. Choice A is incorrect because it is a factor of 10 higher than the correct answer. Choice C is incorrect because it represents the original quantity in centimeters, not the converted value. Choice D is incorrect as it erroneously multiplies the millimeters by 1,000 instead of dividing by 10 to convert to centimeters.

5. How many ounces is equal to 1 gram?

• A. 0.015 ounces
• B. 0.035 ounces
• C. 0.045 ounces
• D. 0.055 ounces

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To convert grams to ounces, you need to multiply the weight in grams by 0.035 to get the equivalent weight in ounces. Therefore, 1 gram is equal to 0.035 ounces. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect conversions and do not accurately represent the conversion factor from grams to ounces.
