Nursing Metric Conversions
1. How many grams are in 2 kilograms?
- A. 200 grams
 - B. 2000 grams
 - C. 20 grams
 - D. 2 grams
 
Correct answer: B
Rationale: To convert kilograms to grams, you need to multiply by 1000 since there are 1000 grams in a kilogram. Therefore, 2 kilograms is equal to 2 x 1000 = 2000 grams. Choice A (200 grams) is incorrect as it represents the value of 0.2 kilograms. Choice C (20 grams) is incorrect as it represents the value of 0.02 kilograms. Choice D (2 grams) is incorrect as it represents the value of 0.002 kilograms.
2. What is 0.6 liters converted to milliliters?
- A. 600 ml
 - B. 60 ml
 - C. 6 ml
 - D. 0.6 ml
 
Correct answer: A
Rationale: To convert 0.6 liters to milliliters, you need to multiply by 1,000 since there are 1,000 milliliters in a liter. Therefore, 0.6 liters equals 600 milliliters. Choice B (60 ml) is incorrect as it is a conversion of 0.06 liters, not 0.6 liters. Choice C (6 ml) is incorrect as it represents a conversion of 0.006 liters, not 0.6 liters. Choice D (0.6 ml) is incorrect as it is the original amount in milliliters, not the converted amount from liters.
3. What is 0.4 divided by 40?
- A. 1/100
 - B. 1/1000
 - C. 1/400
 - D. 1/40000
 
Correct answer: B
Rationale: The calculation of 0.4 divided by 40 results in 0.01, which can be expressed as 1/100. This fraction is the correct representation of the division of 0.4 by 40. Choice A, 1/100, is the correct answer as it accurately reflects the division. Choices C and D, 1/400 and 1/40000 respectively, do not correctly represent the division operation performed on 0.4 and 40, leading to incorrect results and are therefore not the correct answers.
4. What is the equivalent temperature in Kelvin if the temperature is measured at 25 degrees Celsius?
- A. 298.15 K
 - B. 273.15 K
 - C. 250 K
 - D. 25 K
 
Correct answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: 298.15 K. The conversion from Celsius to Kelvin is K = C + 273.15. Therefore, 25°C is equivalent to 298.15 K, as 25 + 273.15 = 298.15. Choice B, 273.15 K, is the freezing point of water in Kelvin, not the equivalent of 25°C. Choice C, 250 K, and Choice D, 25 K, are incorrect conversions and do not align with the correct formula for converting Celsius to Kelvin.
5. How many millimeters are in 1 centimeter?
- A. 1 mm
 - B. 10 mm
 - C. 100 mm
 - D. 1,000 mm
 
Correct answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: '10 mm'. There are 10 millimeters in 1 centimeter. To convert centimeters to millimeters, you multiply by 10 because 1 centimeter is equivalent to 10 millimeters. Choice A '1 mm' is incorrect as it represents the size of 1 millimeter, not the conversion from centimeters to millimeters. Choice C '100 mm' is incorrect as it is the equivalent of 1 meter, not 1 centimeter. Choice D '1,000 mm' is incorrect as it is the equivalent of 1 meter, not 1 centimeter.
