1. What is 0.125 as a fraction?

• A. 1/8
• B. 1/4
• C. 1/2
• D. 1/16

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To convert 0.125 to a fraction, we write it as 125/1000. Simplifying by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 125 gives us 1/8. Therefore, choice A (1/8) is the correct answer. Choice B (1/4) is incorrect as it represents 0.25, not 0.125. Choice C (1/2) is incorrect as it represents 0.5, not 0.125. Choice D (1/16) is incorrect as it represents 0.0625, not 0.125.

2. 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).

3. What is the term for the amount of space an object occupies?

• A. mass
• B. volume
• C. density
• D. area

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct term for the amount of space an object occupies is 'volume.' Volume refers to the three-dimensional space that an object occupies and is measured in cubic units like cubic meters. 'Mass' (Choice A) refers to the amount of matter in an object, 'density' (Choice C) is the mass per unit volume of a substance, and 'area' (Choice D) is the measurement of the extent of a surface.

4. How many milliliters are in 1 ounce?

• A. 20 ml
• B. 30 ml
• C. 40 ml
• D. 50 ml

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 30 ml. 1 ounce is equivalent to 30 milliliters. This conversion is a common one in many contexts involving liquid measurements. Choice A (20 ml), Choice C (40 ml), and Choice D (50 ml) are incorrect conversions and do not represent the accurate conversion between ounces and milliliters.

5. 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.
