- C. 150
- D. 200
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: To find the product of 0.5 and 200, you multiply the two numbers, which equals 100. The correct answer is A. Choice B, 50, is the result of multiplying 0.5 by 100 instead of 200. Choice C, 150, is the result of adding 0.5 and 200 instead of multiplying them. Choice D, 200, is the second number in the multiplication operation and not the correct product.

Convert 0.1 liter to milliliters.
- A. 10 ml
- B. 100 ml
- C. 1000 ml
- D. 1 ml
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: To convert 0.1 liters to milliliters, you need to multiply by 1000, not 10000. Therefore, 0.1 liter converts to 100 ml. Choice A (10 ml) is incorrect because it is the equivalent of 0.01 liter. Choice C (1000 ml) is incorrect as it represents 1 liter. Choice D (1 ml) is significantly less than the correct conversion.
What is the conversion factor from milliliters to liters?
- A. 0.001 liters
- B. 0.01 liters
- C. 1 liter
- D. 10 liters
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: To convert milliliters to liters, you need to divide by 1000 since there are 1000 milliliters in a liter. Therefore, the correct conversion factor is 0.001 liters (1 liter = 1000 milliliters). Choice B (0.01 liters) is incorrect as it suggests dividing by 100, which is not the correct conversion. Choice C (1 liter) is incorrect because it is the equivalent value in liters, not the conversion factor. Choice D (10 liters) is incorrect as it is not the correct conversion of milliliters to liters.
What is 0.4 divided by 40?
- A. 1/100
- B. 1/1000
- C. 1/400
- D. 1/40000
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The calculation of 0.4 divided by 40 results in 0.01, which can be expressed as 1/100. This fraction is the correct representation of the division of 0.4 by 40. Choice A, 1/100, is the correct answer as it accurately reflects the division. Choices C and D, 1/400 and 1/40000 respectively, do not correctly represent the division operation performed on 0.4 and 40, leading to incorrect results and are therefore not the correct answers.
Convert 1.25 kilograms to grams.
- A. 12.5 grams
- B. 125 grams
- C. 1,250 grams
- D. 1250 mg
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: To convert kilograms to grams, you need to multiply by 1000 since there are 1000 grams in a kilogram. Therefore, 1.25 kilograms is equal to 1.25 x 1000 = 1,250 grams. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because they do not correctly convert kilograms to grams.
How many quarts are equivalent to 2 liters?
- A. 1.06 quarts
- B. 0.5 quarts
- C. 2.1 quarts
- D. 4 quarts
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: To convert liters to quarts, we know that 1 liter is approximately equal to 1.06 quarts. Therefore, 2 liters would be around 2.12 quarts. However, for practical purposes, it's often rounded to 2.1 quarts. Option A, '1.06 quarts,' is the closest and most accurate approximation. Option B, '0.5 quarts,' is incorrect as it represents half of the actual conversion. Option C, '2.1 quarts,' is close but slightly higher than the actual conversion. Option D, '4 quarts,' is double the correct conversion and is therefore incorrect.
