Question 1 of 5
How many centimeters are in 1 inch?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: 2.54 cm. One inch is equivalent to 2.54 centimeters. This conversion factor is commonly used when converting measurements between the metric and imperial systems. Choice B (3 cm) is incorrect as it is not the accurate conversion factor for 1 inch. Choice C (2 cm) is also incorrect as it does not reflect the correct conversion. Choice D (1 cm) is incorrect as it inaccurately states the conversion value for 1 inch.
Question 2 of 5
How many milliliters are in 1 liter?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is 1,000 milliliters in 1 liter. The conversion from liters to milliliters involves multiplying by 1,000 since 1 liter is equivalent to 1,000 milliliters. Choice A, 10 mL, is incorrect as it represents only a fraction of a liter. Choice B, 100 mL, is also incorrect as it is one-tenth of a liter. Choice D, 10,000 mL, is significantly larger than the correct answer and represents 10 liters, not 1 liter.

Question 5 of 5
How many liters are in 750 milliliters?
Correct Answer: B
