1. How many liters are in 750 milliliters?

• A. 7.5 liters
• B. 0.75 liters
• C. 0.0075 liters
• D. 0.075 liters

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To convert milliliters to liters, you need to divide by 1000 since there are 1000 milliliters in a liter. Therefore, 750 milliliters divided by 1000 equals 0.75 liters. Choice A (7.5 liters) is incorrect as it is off by a factor of 10. Choice C (0.0075 liters) is incorrect as it is off by a factor of 100. Choice D (0.075 liters) is incorrect as it is off by a factor of 10.

2. How many liters are in 2,000 milliliters?

• A. 0.2 liters
• B. 2 liters
• C. 0.02 liters
• D. 20 liters

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 2 liters. To convert milliliters to liters, you need to divide by 1000 since there are 1000 milliliters in a liter. Therefore, 2,000 milliliters is equal to 2 liters (2000 ÷ 1000 = 2). Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because they incorrectly convert milliliters to liters, resulting in values that are too low (A and C) or too high (D).

3. The prefix giga is represented by the following notation ________.

• A. G
• B. m
• C. Gg
• D. g

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: 'G'. The prefix 'giga' is commonly represented by the letter 'G' and corresponds to a factor of 10^9, which is equivalent to one billion. Choice B, 'm', represents the prefix 'milli', which corresponds to a factor of 10^-3, not 'giga'. Choice C, 'Gg', is incorrect as the prefix 'giga' is represented by a single letter 'G', not 'Gg'. Choice D, 'g', is incorrect as it represents the prefix 'gram' in the International System of Units (SI) and not the prefix 'giga'.

4. Which conversion is accurate?

• A. 1 inch = 2.5 cm
• B. 1 meter = 39.37 inches
• C. 1 liter = 1.057 quarts
• D. 1 gram = 100 milligrams

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: '1 liter = 1.057 quarts.' This conversion is accurate as it reflects the precise relationship between liters and quarts, where 1 liter is slightly more than a quart. Choice A is incorrect because 1 inch is approximately equal to 2.54 cm, not 2.5 cm. Choice B is incorrect as 1 meter is equivalent to approximately 39.37 inches, not exactly. Choice D is also inaccurate as 1 gram is equal to 1000 milligrams, not 100 milligrams.

5. What is the conversion factor from milliliters to liters?

• A. 0.001 liters
• B. 0.01 liters
• C. 1 liter
• D. 10 liters

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To convert milliliters to liters, you need to divide by 1000 since there are 1000 milliliters in a liter. Therefore, the correct conversion factor is 0.001 liters (1 liter = 1000 milliliters). Choice B (0.01 liters) is incorrect as it suggests dividing by 100, which is not the correct conversion. Choice C (1 liter) is incorrect because it is the equivalent value in liters, not the conversion factor. Choice D (10 liters) is incorrect as it is not the correct conversion of milliliters to liters.
