What is 0.07 expressed as a fraction?
- A. 7/100
- B. 1/10

What is 0.04 liters converted to milliliters?
- A. 40 ml
- B. 4 ml
- C. 400 ml
- D. 0.4 ml
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: To convert liters to milliliters, you need to multiply by 1,000 since there are 1,000 milliliters in a liter. So, to convert 0.04 liters to milliliters, you would multiply 0.04 by 1,000, giving you 40 milliliters. This means that choice A, '40 ml', is the correct answer. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not correctly convert liters to milliliters. Choice B, '4 ml', is incorrect as it is 10 times smaller than the correct conversion. Choice C, '400 ml', is incorrect as it is 10 times larger than the correct conversion. Choice D, '0.4 ml', is incorrect as it is one-tenth of the correct conversion.
Convert 0.025 mg to micrograms.
- A. 25 mcg
- B. 250 mcg
- C. 2.5 mcg
- D. 0.25 mcg
Correct Answer: A

Choice C (2.5 mcg) is incorrect as it incorrectly divides by 10. Choice D (0.25 mcg) is incorrect as it incorrectly multiplies by 10.

Choice A (0.345 liters) is incorrect as it incorrectly moves the decimal point. Choice C (34.5 liters) is incorrect as it overestimates the conversion. Choice D (345 liters) is incorrect as it overestimates by an order of magnitude.
