1. How many milliliters are in 0.5 liters?

• A. 50 mL
• B. 500 mL
• C. 5,000 mL
• D. 5 mL

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To convert liters to milliliters, you need to multiply by 1000 since there are 1000 milliliters in 1 liter. Therefore, 0.5 liters x 1000 = 500 milliliters, making choice B the correct answer. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not correctly convert liters to milliliters.

2. 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.

3. 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.

4. Convert 34.5 grams to kilograms (kg).

• A. 3.45 kg
• B. 34.5 kg
• C. 345 kg
• D. 3.45 grams

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To convert grams to kilograms, divide by 1,000 since there are 1,000 grams in a kilogram. Therefore, 34.5 grams ÷ 1,000 = 0.0345 kilograms. The correct answer is 3.45 kg (not 3.45 grams, which is the amount given in the initial question). Choices B and C are incorrect as they do not involve the conversion from grams to kilograms. Choice D is also incorrect as it presents the value in grams instead of kilograms.

5. How many grams are in 5 kilograms?

• A. 50 grams
• B. 500 grams
• C. 5000 grams
• D. 5 grams

Correct answer: C

Rationale: To convert kilograms to grams, you need to multiply by 1000 because there are 1000 grams in a kilogram. Therefore, 5 kilograms x 1000 grams/kilogram = 5000 grams. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because they do not correctly convert kilograms to grams.
