What is the equivalent of 35.4 centimeters in kilometers (km)?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: To convert centimeters to kilometers, you need to divide by 100,000 since there are 100,000 centimeters in a kilometer. Therefore, 35.4 cm · 100,000 = 0.000354 km. Choice A (0.00354 km) is incorrect as it represents dividing by 10,000, not 100,000. Choice C (0.00345 km) is incorrect as the last digit is different from the correct answer. Choice D (0.0345 km) is incorrect as it represents dividing by 1,000, not by 100,000.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: derived units. When base units (such as grams or milliliters) are combined, as seen in g/mL (grams per milliliter) for density, they form derived units. Derived units measure complex quantities that are derived from combinations of base units. Choice A, 'combined units,' is incorrect as it does not specifically refer to the formation of new units from base units. Choice C, 'base units,' is incorrect because base units are the fundamental units from which all other units are derived, not the combinations of units. Choice D, 'calculated units,' is incorrect as it does not accurately describe the concept of combining base units to form a new unit like g/mL for density.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct formula for calculating the volume of a solid object is V = L x W x H, where L represents the length, W represents the width, and H represents the height. Choice A (V = W/L) is incorrect as it represents a division operation, not multiplication. Choice C (V = W/H) is incorrect as it does not account for the width and height. Choice D (V = L/W) is incorrect as it represents the inverse operation of what is needed to calculate volume.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To convert liters to milliliters, you need to multiply by 1000 since there are 1000 milliliters in 1 liter. Therefore, 3.75 liters x 1000 = 3750 milliliters. This means that option C, 3750 ml, is the correct conversion. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because they do not reflect the correct conversion from liters to milliliters.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct formula to convert Celsius to Fahrenheit is (C 9/5) + 32. This formula involves multiplying the Celsius temperature by 9/5 and then adding 32 to get the Fahrenheit temperature. Choice B is incorrect as it suggests dividing by 5/9 instead of multiplying by 9/5. Choices C and D are both incorrect because they involve using the Fahrenheit temperature in the calculation, which is not the correct method for converting Celsius to Fahrenheit.
