Question 1 of 5

What is the equivalent of 255.0 pounds in kilograms (1 kg = 2.205 lbs)?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: To convert pounds to kilograms, you need to divide the weight in pounds by 2.205 (1 kg = 2.205 lbs). Therefore, 255.0 pounds divided by 2.205 equals 115.6 kilograms. This results in choice D being the correct answer. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect as they do not reflect the accurate conversion calculation from pounds to kilograms.

Choice B, 'megabyte,' is a unit of digital information storage, not a metric system unit. Choice C, 'millipede,' is an arthropod and not a metric unit.

Question 5 of 5

Convert 345,000 millimeters to centimeters (cm).

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: To convert millimeters to centimeters, you need to divide by 10 since there are 10 millimeters in 1 centimeter. Therefore, 345,000 mm · 10 = 34,500 cm. Choice A is incorrect because it is a factor of 10 higher than the correct answer. Choice C is incorrect because it represents the original quantity in centimeters, not the converted value. Choice D is incorrect as it erroneously multiplies the millimeters by 1,000 instead of dividing by 10 to convert to centimeters.
