Metric Conversions for Nursing Questions
Question 1 of 5
What is 0.5 liter in ounces?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: To convert liters to ounces, we need to know that 1 liter is equal to 33.814 ounces. Therefore, 0.5 liter would be 0.5 * 33.814 = 16.907 ounces. Rounding to two decimal places, the correct answer is 16.91 oz (choice A). Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not accurately represent the conversion of 0.5 liter to ounces.
Question 2 of 5
Convert 2500 milliliters to liters.
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: To convert milliliters to liters, you need to divide by 1000 since there are 1000 milliliters in 1 liter. So, 2500 milliliters ÷ 1000 = 2.5 liters (Option A). Option B (25 liters) is 10 times the correct answer. Option C (0.25 liters) is dividing by 10 instead of 1000. Option D (250 liters) is multiplying by 100 instead of dividing by 1000.
Question 3 of 5
How many milliliters are in 2 liters?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: To convert liters to milliliters, you multiply by 1000 because 1 liter = 1000 milliliters. Therefore, 2 liters x 1000 = 2000 milliliters. This is why choice A (2000 mL) is correct. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not correctly convert 2 liters to milliliters using the conversion factor of 1000. Choice B (20,000 mL) is 10 times the correct answer, choice C (200 mL) is 10 times less, and choice D (2 mL) is 1000 times less than the correct answer.
Question 4 of 5
Convert 0.875 to a fraction,
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: To convert 0.875 to a fraction, we first note that the decimal places indicate the denominator. Since there are three decimal places, the denominator is 10^3 = 1000. Then, 0.875 = 875/1000, which simplifies to 7/8 by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 125. Therefore, the correct answer is A (7/8). The other choices are incorrect because B (8/7) is the reciprocal of the correct answer, C (3/4) and D (9/10) do not equal 0.875.
Question 5 of 5
What does the prefix 'Tera' refer to?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The prefix 'Tera' corresponds to the value of 10^12. This can be understood by knowing that the International System of Units (SI) prefixes are based on powers of 10. 'Tera' comes after 'Giga' (10^9) and before 'Peta' (10^15). Therefore, the correct choice is A. Summary of other choices: B: Incorrect because 'Giga' represents 10^9. C: Incorrect as 'Peta' represents 10^15, a higher value. D: Incorrect because 'Mega' represents 10^6, a lower value than 'Tera'.
