Question: 497

10. Teaspoon is to tablespoon as pint is to

  • A. measure
  • B. liter
  • C. cup
  • D. quart

Correct Answer: D

Explanation:

D is correct. To answer this measurement analogy correctly, it will help you to know that an amount consisting of a teaspoon is less than an amount consisting of a tablespoon. So, following the pattern the stem establishes,you will need to know which choice represents a greater measure than a pint. Choice B is incorrect because, although a liter is greater than a pint, this is a metric measurement. The other three measurements the stem provides are U.S. Customary measurements; therefore choice B is not a better answer than choice D. Choice C is incorrect because a cup is a measurement which is less than a pint, not more.
