Solve each of the following problems using one or more conversion factors (see Table):
a. A container holds 0.750 qt of liquid. How many milliliters of lemonade will it hold?
b. In England, a person is weighed in stones. If one stone is 14.0 lb, what is the mass, in kilograms, of a person who weighs 11.8 stones?
c. The femur, or thighbone, is the longest bone in the body. In a 6-ft-tall person, the femur is 19.5 in. long. What is the length of that femur in millimeters?
d. How many inches thick is an arterial wall that measures 0.50 μm?
Table: Some Common Equalities
| Quantity | Metric (SI) | U.S. | Metric–U.S. |
| Length | 1 km = 1000 m 1m = 1000 mm 1 cm = 10 mm | 1 ft = 12 in. 1 yd = 3 ft 1 mi = 5280 ft | 2.54 cm = 1 in.(exact) 1 m = 39.37 in. 1 km = 0.6214 mi |
| Volume | 1 L = 1000 mL 1 dL = 100 mL 1 mL = 1 cm3 | 1 qt = 4 cups 1 qt = 2 pt 1 gal = 4 qt | 1 L = 1.057 qt 946.3 mL = 1 qt |
| Mass | 1 kg = 1000 g 1 g = 1000 mg | 1 lb = 16 oz | 1 kg = 2.205 lb 453.6 g = 1 lb |
| Time | 1 h = 60 min 1 min = 60 s |
