1. What is 0.6 liters converted to milliliters?

• A. 600 ml
• B. 60 ml
• C. 6 ml
• D. 0.6 ml

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To convert 0.6 liters to milliliters, you need to multiply by 1,000 since there are 1,000 milliliters in a liter. Therefore, 0.6 liters equals 600 milliliters. Choice B (60 ml) is incorrect as it is a conversion of 0.06 liters, not 0.6 liters. Choice C (6 ml) is incorrect as it represents a conversion of 0.006 liters, not 0.6 liters. Choice D (0.6 ml) is incorrect as it is the original amount in milliliters, not the converted amount from liters.

2. What is 0.875 as a simplified fraction?

• A. 7/8
• B. 9/10
• C. 5/6
• D. 3/4

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To convert 0.875 to a fraction, we write it as 875/1000. Then, simplify the fraction by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 125 to get 7/8, which is the simplest form of the fraction. Choice B (9/10), Choice C (5/6), and Choice D (3/4) are all incorrect because they do not represent the value of 0.875 when expressed as a fraction.

3. How many milligrams (mg) are equal to 1 gram?

• A. 100 mg
• B. 1,000 mg
• C. 1 mg
• D. 10,000 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, 1 gram × 1,000 = 1,000 milligrams. Choice A (100 mg) is incorrect as it represents 0.1 grams, not 1 gram. Choice C (1 mg) is incorrect as it represents a fraction of a gram. Choice D (10,000 mg) is incorrect as it is 10 times more than the correct conversion.

4. What is 0.004 as a ratio?

• A. 5:10
• B. 1:250
• C. 7:28
• D. 4:00

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To convert 0.004 to a ratio, first express it as a fraction by writing it as 4/1000. Simplifying this fraction gives 1/250. Therefore, 0.004 as a ratio is 1:250. Choice A (5:10) simplifies to 1:2, not equivalent to 0.004. Choice C (7:28) does not simplify to a value close to 0.004. Choice D (4:00) is not a valid ratio representation of 0.004.

5. What is 0.45 liters in milliliters?

• A. 450 ml
• B. 45 ml
• C. 4.5 ml
• D. 0.45 ml

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To convert liters to milliliters, you need to multiply by 1000 since 1 liter equals 1000 milliliters. Therefore, 0.45 liters is equivalent to 450 milliliters. Choice B, 45 ml, is incorrect as it represents the conversion of 0.045 liters to milliliters. Choice C, 4.5 ml, is incorrect as it represents the conversion of 0.0045 liters to milliliters. Choice D, 0.45 ml, is incorrect as it is the initial quantity in milliliters and not the result of the conversion.
