Correct Answer: B

Rationale: To convert kilograms to grams, you need to multiply by 1000 since 1 kilogram is equal to 1000 grams. So, 0.75 kg * 1000 = 750 grams. Therefore, choice B (750 grams) is correct. Choice A (75 grams) is incorrect as it is a decimal point off; choice C (7,500 grams) is incorrect as it is off by a factor of 10; and choice D (75,000 grams) is incorrect as it is off by a factor of 100.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To convert a decimal to inches, we know that 1 inch is equal to 1.0. So, 0.13 inches can be written as 0.13 * 1 inch which equals 0.13 inches. A: 0.013 inches - Incorrect, this is a smaller value than 0.13 inches. B: 1.3 inches - Incorrect, this is a larger value than 0.13 inches. D: 13 inches - Incorrect, this is a significantly larger value than 0.13 inches. Therefore, the correct answer is C as 0.13 inches is the equivalent decimal value.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To convert kilograms to grams, we need to multiply the number of kilograms by 1000 since there are 1000 grams in 1 kilogram. Therefore, to find out how many grams are in 5 kilograms, we multiply 5 by 1000, which equals 5000 grams. The correct answer is C. A: 50 grams - Incorrect. 5 kilograms is equal to 5000 grams, not 50 grams. B: 500 grams - Incorrect. 5 kilograms is equal to 5000 grams, not 500 grams. D: 5 grams - Incorrect. 5 kilograms is equal to 5000 grams, not 5 grams.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: To convert milligrams to grams, you need to divide by 1000 since there are 1000 milligrams in 1 gram. Therefore, 35,400 mg divided by 1000 equals 35.4 grams. Choice B, 35.4 g, is the correct answer as it correctly represents the conversion. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not perform the correct conversion calculation. Choice A incorrectly moves the decimal point, choice C multiplies instead of divides, and choice D adds an extra zero.
