Nursing Metric Conversions Questions

Question 1 of 5

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

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: To convert 35.4 centimeters to kilometers, we need to divide by 100, as there are 100 centimeters in a meter and 1000 meters in a kilometer. Therefore, 35.4 cm ÷ 100 = 0.354 meters. To convert meters to kilometers, we divide by 1000, so 0.354 m ÷ 1000 = 0.000354 km, which is choice B. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect as they do not follow the correct conversion factor.

Question 2 of 5

What is 0.2 rounded to the nearest tenth?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The number 0.2 rounded to the nearest tenth means rounding to one decimal place. Since the digit after the tenths place is 0, we keep the tenths place as it is. Therefore, the correct answer is B: 0.2. A: 0.1 - Incorrect, this is rounding down to the nearest tenth. C: 0.3 - Incorrect, this is rounding up to the nearest tenth. D: 0.25 - Incorrect, this is rounding to the nearest hundredth, not tenth.

Question 3 of 5

What is 0.16 as a fraction?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To convert 0.16 to a fraction, we consider the decimal places. Since 0.16 has 2 decimal places, we write it as 16/100. Simplifying by dividing both numerator and denominator by 4, we get 4/25. Therefore, the correct answer is C. Option A is incorrect as it does not simplify to the simplest form. Option B is incorrect as it has an additional zero in the denominator. Option D is incorrect as it simplifies to 2/25, not 4/25.

Question 4 of 5

How many grams are in 2 kilograms?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: To convert kilograms to grams, we must remember that 1 kilogram is equal to 1000 grams. Therefore, to find how many grams are in 2 kilograms, we multiply 2 by 1000, which equals 2000 grams. This makes choice B the correct answer. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not correctly convert kilograms to grams. Choice A is the result of mistakenly multiplying by 100 instead of 1000. Choice C is the result of dividing instead of multiplying. Choice D is simply the original amount in kilograms, without conversion.

Question 5 of 5

How many liters are in 2,000 milliliters?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: To convert milliliters to liters, divide by 1000 since 1 liter = 1000 milliliters. So, 2000 milliliters ÷ 1000 = 2 liters. Choice B is correct. Choice A is incorrect as it's 0.2 liters (misplaced decimal). Choice C is incorrect as it's 0.02 liters (decimal off by a factor of 10). Choice D is incorrect as it's 20 liters (decimal misplaced).
