1. What is 0.07 expressed as a fraction?

• A. 7/100
• B. 1/10
• C. 1/20
• D. 1/50

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To convert a decimal to a fraction, we read the decimal as '7 hundredths,' which is written as 7/100. This fraction is already in its simplest form. Choice B, 1/10, is incorrect as it represents 0.1, not 0.07. Choices C and D, 1/20 and 1/50 respectively, do not match the decimal 0.07.

2. How many feet are equal to 1 yard?

• A. 4 feet
• B. 3 feet
• C. 2 feet
• D. 5 feet

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 3 feet. This is because 1 yard is equivalent to 3 feet. The conversion factor between yards and feet is 1 yard = 3 feet. Choice A (4 feet) is incorrect as it represents the conversion of 1 yard to 4 feet, which is inaccurate. Choice C (2 feet) is incorrect as it underestimates the number of feet in 1 yard. Choice D (5 feet) is incorrect as it overestimates the number of feet in 1 yard.

3. What is 0.04 grams converted to milligrams?

• A. 40 mg
• B. 4 mg
• C. 400 mg
• D. 0.4 mg

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To convert grams to milligrams, you need to multiply by 1000, not 10000. Therefore, to convert 0.04 grams to milligrams, you multiply 0.04 by 1000, which equals 40 mg. Choice A (40 mg) is the correct answer. Choice B (4 mg) is incorrect as it represents converting 0.004 grams to milligrams. Choice C (400 mg) is incorrect as it is 10 times the correct conversion. Choice D (0.4 mg) is incorrect as it is 10 times smaller than the correct conversion.

4. What is 0.5 liter in ounces?

• A. 16.91 oz
• B. 15.91 oz
• C. 17.91 oz
• D. 18.91 oz

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To convert liters to ounces, you need to multiply the liter value by 33.814. Therefore, to convert 0.5 liters to ounces, you would calculate 0.5 x 33.814 = 16.91 ounces. This conversion factor is commonly used in cooking and liquid measurements. Choice B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not reflect the accurate conversion from liters to ounces.

5. What is 0.5 liters in milliliters?

• A. 500 ml
• B. 50 ml
• C. 5 ml
• D. 0.5 ml

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To convert liters to milliliters, you need to multiply by 1000 because 1 liter is equal to 1000 milliliters. Therefore, when you convert 0.5 liters to milliliters, you get 500 milliliters (0.5 * 1000 = 500). This conversion is commonly used in various situations where different units of volume are required. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not follow the correct conversion factor between liters and milliliters.
