Nursing Metric Conversions Questions

Question 1 of 5

What is the expression 1 in. = 2.54 cm properly called?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: Exact Equivalent. The expression 1 inch = 2.54 cm is a direct and precise conversion between inches and centimeters, making it an exact equivalent. It is not related to the Law of Conservation of Units (A) as this principle pertains to the conservation of physical quantities in a system. The International Yard (B) is a unit of measurement, but it is not the term for the given expression. Similarly, while the conversion factor in the expression is standard, it is specifically an exact equivalent and not just a general standard conversion factor (C). Therefore, D is the most appropriate term to describe this specific conversion relationship.

Question 2 of 5

What is 0.004 as a simplified ratio?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To convert 0.004 to a ratio, we first express it as 4/1000, which simplifies to 1/250. Hence, 0.004 is equivalent to the simplified ratio of 1:250. Choice B, 4:35, is incorrect as it does not reflect the correct conversion. Choice C, 7:28, is incorrect because it does not represent the simplified ratio of 0.004. Choice D, 4:00, is incorrect as it does not simplify to the original decimal value.

Question 3 of 5

Convert 345 centimeters to 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, 345 cm · 100,000 = 0.00345 km. The correct answer is 0.0345 km, which is obtained by accurately dividing 345 by 100,000. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not correctly apply the conversion factor and result in inaccurate values for kilometers.

Question 4 of 5

How many liters are in 2,000 milliliters?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 2 liters. To convert milliliters to liters, you need to divide by 1000 since there are 1000 milliliters in a liter. Therefore, 2,000 milliliters is equal to 2 liters (2000 · 1000 = 2). Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because they incorrectly convert milliliters to liters, resulting in values that are too low (A and C) or too high (D).

Question 5 of 5

How many ounces are in 2 quarts?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To convert quarts to ounces, you need to know that 1 quart is equal to 32 ounces. Therefore, 2 quarts would be 2 x 32 = 64 ounces. The correct answer is not 16 ounces as stated in the original rationale. The correct answer is 64 ounces, which corresponds to 2 quarts. As a result, 'C: 16 ounces' is incorrect. Options A, B, and D are also incorrect as they do not reflect the accurate conversion from quarts to ounces.
