Question

Which of the following measurements is equal to 550000 µL?

5.5L

55 cL

5500 mL

5500000 nL

Answer 1

µL = 10^-6 L
cL = 10^-2 L
mL = 10^-3 L
nL = 10^-9 L

So for the first option (5.5L) you just multiply 550000 by 10^-6. The answer is 0.55L, So A is not the answer

For the second one (55cL) you subtract the cL in L from the µL in L, This is 10^-6 - 10^-2, which is 10^-4. Next you multiply 550000 by 10^-4, which will result in 55 cL. You now know that 550000 µL is equal to 55 cL
