1. What is 0.75 as a fraction?

• A. 3/4
• B. 7/10
• C. 15/20
• D. 1/2

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To convert a decimal to a fraction, you can write the decimal as a fraction with the decimal part as the numerator and a power of 10 as the denominator. In this case, 0.75 can be written as 75/100. Simplifying this fraction by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 25 gives you 3/4. Therefore, the correct answer is A. Choice B (7/10), Choice C (15/20), and Choice D (1/2) are incorrect because they do not represent the correct conversion of 0.75 into a fraction.

2. How many milliliters are there in 0.5 liters?

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

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To convert liters to milliliters, you need to multiply by 1000 since there are 1000 milliliters in a liter. Therefore, 0.5 liters is equal to 500 milliliters. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not reflect the correct conversion from liters to milliliters.

3. What is 0.4 expressed in inches?

• A. 0.04 inches
• B. 4 inches
• C. 0.4 inches
• D. 40 inches

Correct answer: C

Rationale: To express 0.4 in inches, you don't need to convert it further as it is already in inches. Therefore, the correct answer is 0.4 inches. Choice A (0.04 inches) is incorrect as it represents a smaller quantity. Choice B (4 inches) and Choice D (40 inches) are incorrect as they represent larger quantities, which are not equivalent to 0.4 inches.

4. 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.

5. What is the equivalent of 500 milliliters in liters?

• A. 0.05 liters
• B. 0.5 liters
• C. 5 liters
• D. 50 liters

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To convert milliliters to liters, you need to divide by 1000 since 1 liter is equal to 1000 milliliters. Therefore, 500 milliliters divided by 1000 equals 0.5 liters. Choice A (0.05 liters) is incorrect because it represents 50 milliliters, not 500 milliliters. Choice C (5 liters) and Choice D (50 liters) are both incorrect as they are higher values and do not accurately represent the conversion of 500 milliliters to liters.
