Metric Conversions for TEAS 7

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: femto- (f) = 10^-12 meters. The prefix "femto-" represents 10^-15, not 10^-12. Therefore, choices A and D are incorrect. Choice B, nano- (n) = 10^-12, is incorrect as well because it actually represents 10^-9. The correct relationship is that femto- (f) corresponds to 10^-12 meters, making option C the right choice.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To convert grams to milligrams, you need to multiply by 1000 since there are 1000 milligrams in 1 gram. So, 0.04 grams x 1000 = 40 mg. Therefore, the correct answer is A. Choice B is incorrect because it's 10 times smaller than the correct answer. Choice C is incorrect because it's 100 times larger than the correct answer. Choice D is incorrect because it's 100 times smaller than the correct answer.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: To convert 0.075 mg to micrograms, you need to multiply by 1000 since there are 1000 micrograms in a milligram. So, 0.075 mg * 1000 = 75 mcg. Therefore, the correct answer is D: 750 mcg. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect as they do not correctly convert milligrams to micrograms.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To convert 0.875 to a fraction, note that it is equivalent to 875/1000. Simplifying by dividing both numerator and denominator by 125 gives 7/8. This is the correct answer because it is the simplest form of the fraction. Choice B (8/7) is incorrect as it represents a fraction greater than 1. Choice C (3/4) is incorrect as it is not equivalent to 0.875. Choice D (9/10) is incorrect as it does not match the decimal value of 0.875.
