1. What does the prefix 'Tera' refer to?

• A. 10^12
• B. 10^9
• C. 10^15
• D. 10^6

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The prefix 'Tera' corresponds to a factor of 10^12, which is equivalent to one trillion. It is commonly used in various fields like data storage to denote large quantities. Choice B, '10^9,' is incorrect as it corresponds to the prefix 'Giga.' Choice C, '10^15,' is incorrect as it corresponds to the prefix 'Peta.' Choice D, '10^6,' is incorrect as it corresponds to the prefix 'Mega.' Therefore, the correct answer is A.

2. Convert 25 millimeters to centimeters.

• A. 250 cm
• B. 25 cm
• C. 2.5 mm
• D. 25 mm

Correct answer: D

Rationale: To convert millimeters to centimeters, you need to divide by 10 because there are 10 millimeters in one centimeter. Therefore, 25 millimeters is equal to 25/10 = 2.5 centimeters, making choice D the correct answer. Choice A (250 cm) is incorrect as it incorrectly multiplies instead of dividing by 10. Choice B (25 cm) is also incorrect as it doesn't convert millimeters to centimeters. Choice C (2.5 mm) is incorrect as it provides the measurement in millimeters rather than centimeters.

3. What is 0.1 kg in grams?

• A. 100 g
• B. 10 g
• C. 1 g
• D. 0.1 g

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To convert kilograms to grams, you need to multiply by 1,000 since there are 1,000 grams in a kilogram. Therefore, 0.1 kg equals 100 grams. Choice B (10 g) is incorrect because it represents converting 0.01 kg to grams. Choice C (1 g) is incorrect as it reflects the conversion of 0.001 kg to grams. Choice D (0.1 g) is the value in grams equivalent to 0.01 kg, not 0.1 kg.

4. How many cups are in one pint?

• A. 1 cup
• B. 2 cups
• C. 3 cups
• D. 4 cups

Correct answer: B

Rationale: One pint is equivalent to 2 cups. This conversion is a common measurement in cooking and baking. Choice A (1 cup), Choice C (3 cups), and Choice D (4 cups) are incorrect because a pint specifically contains 2 cups according to standard measurement conversions.

5. 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).
