1. How many milligrams are in 3.4 grams?

• A. 340 mg
• B. 3,400 mg
• C. 34,000 mg
• D. 3400 mg

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To convert grams to milligrams, you need to multiply by 1,000 because there are 1,000 milligrams in 1 gram. Therefore, to find out how many milligrams are in 3.4 grams, you multiply 3.4 by 1,000 which equals 3,400 mg. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not correctly convert grams to milligrams.

2. How many feet are in 6 meters?

• A. 1.83 feet
• B. 18.48 feet
• C. 18.8 feet
• D. 19.68 feet

Correct answer: D

Rationale: To convert meters to feet, you can use the conversion factor: 1 meter = 3.28084 feet. Therefore, for 6 meters: 6 × 3.28084 = 19.684 feet. Rounding to two decimal places, the answer is 19.68 feet. Choice D, 19.68 feet, is the correct conversion. Choice A, 1.83 feet, is incorrect as it seems to be a miscalculation. Choice B, 18.48 feet, is incorrect as it doesn't match the correct conversion. Choice C, 18.8 feet, is also incorrect as it is not the accurate conversion from 6 meters to feet.

3. How many kilograms are in 2000 grams?

• A. 20 kilograms
• B. 2 kilograms
• C. 5 kilograms
• D. 10 kilograms

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To convert grams to kilograms, you need to divide by 1000 since there are 1000 grams in a kilogram. Therefore, 2000 grams is equal to 2 kilograms (2000 grams ÷ 1000 = 2 kilograms). The correct answer is B: 2 kilograms. Choice A, 20 kilograms, is incorrect because multiplying by 10 (not dividing by 1000) would give that result. Choice C, 5 kilograms, and Choice D, 10 kilograms, are also incorrect as they do not correctly convert grams to kilograms.

4. Subtract 12 - 7 4\5.

• A. 5 1\5
• B. 5 2\5
• C. 4 5\6
• D. 3 1\3

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Subtract the whole numbers and then subtract the fractions: 12 - 7 4\5 = 5 1\5.

5. How many pints are in 56 ounces?

• A. 3
• B. 3.5
• C. 7
• D. 8

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To find out how many pints are in 56 ounces, you need to divide 56 by 16 (as there are 16 ounces in a pint). This results in 3.5 pints, making choice B the correct answer. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not accurately calculate the conversion from ounces to pints.
