Practice questions

Q1At a station rotation, one group records that a ribbon is 2 m 35 cm long. What is the same length in centimetres?

A 235 cm
B 2035 cm
C 135 cm
D 70 cm
Explanation

A metre has 100 centimetres, so 2 m is 200 cm. Adding the remaining 35 cm gives 235 cm; the other options show digit-joining, a wrong metre relation, or a wrong operation.

Q2Asha measures the length of her pencil. Which unit is the most suitable for this Class 2 task?

A centimetre
B kilogram
C litre
D hour
Explanation

Asha began with paper strips and then a ruler, so centimetre is the right standard unit for a pencil. The trap options confuse length with weight, capacity and time. REET often checks whether the candidate keeps object, attribute and unit aligned.

Q3A bottle has 2 L 350 ml of water. How many millilitres of water is this?

A 2350 ml
B 2050 ml
C 2700 ml
D 200350 ml
Explanation

Capacity is commonly converted by using 1 L = 1000 ml. So 2 L 350 ml means 2000 ml + 350 ml = 2350 ml; the other options come from partial addition, doubling, or joining digits.

Q4Which match correctly links the attribute, instrument and standard unit for capacity?

A How heavy a grain pouch is - ruler - metre
B How much a bottle holds - measuring container - litre
C How long a desk edge is - balance - kilogram
D What time school starts - measuring cup - millilitre
Explanation

Capacity means how much a container can hold, so a measuring container and litre or millilitre fit the attribute. The other matches fail because they mix length, weight or time with the wrong instrument and unit.

Q5A jug contains 1 L 200 ml of juice. Rina pours 450 ml into glasses. How much juice is left in the jug?

A 650 ml
B 750 ml
C 850 ml
D 1650 ml
Explanation

First convert the mixed capacity to one unit: 1 L 200 ml = 1200 ml. Since 450 ml is poured out, subtract it, giving 750 ml; the traps show wrong conversion, wrong subtraction, or addition instead of subtraction.
