1. How many meters are in one kilometer?

• A. 100 meters
• B. 1000 meters
• C. 500 meters
• D. 2000 meters

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 1000 meters. One kilometer is equivalent to 1000 meters. Therefore, 1000 meters is the accurate conversion from kilometers to meters. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect. Choice A (100 meters) is incorrect as it represents 1/10th of a kilometer. Choice C (500 meters) is incorrect as it is half the value of a kilometer. Choice D (2000 meters) is incorrect as it exceeds the value of a kilometer.

2. What is 0.875 as a fraction?

• A. 7/8
• B. 9/10
• C. 5/6
• D. 3/4

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To convert 0.875 to a fraction, you can write it as 875/1000. Simplifying this fraction by dividing the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 125, gives you 7/8. Therefore, the correct answer is 7/8. Choice B (9/10), Choice C (5/6), and Choice D (3/4) are incorrect as they do not represent the fraction equivalent of 0.875.

3. 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.

4. What is 0.875 as a simplified fraction?

• A. 7/8
• B. 9/10
• C. 5/6
• D. 3/4

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To convert 0.875 to a fraction, we write it as 875/1000. Then, simplify the fraction by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 125 to get 7/8, which is the simplest form of the fraction. Choice B (9/10), Choice C (5/6), and Choice D (3/4) are all incorrect because they do not represent the value of 0.875 when expressed as a fraction.

5. What does 'L' stand for in the metric system?

• A. liter
• B. log
• C. link
• D. lever

Correct answer: A

Rationale: In the metric system, 'L' stands for liter, which is the base unit for liquid volume. The other choices are incorrect: 'B' log is not a standard metric unit, 'C' link is a unit of length in the Imperial system, and 'D' lever is not a metric unit but a simple machine.
