Convert the answer to g
3.6 kg = 3 000 g + 600 g = 3600 g
Or
3.6 kg = 3.6 x 1 000g = 3 600 g
Example 3:
The mass of an orange is 125 g. There are 10 oranges in a basket. What is the total mass of the oranges in the basket? Write your answer in decimal of kilograms.
Solution: 125 g x 10 = 1 250 g 1 250 g =
1 250 = 1.250 kg = 1.25 kg 1 000
