To convert any unit to it's "milli-" form always multiply the given value by 1000. The new value will be the value of in the "milli-" form.
The question asked to us is to convert 3.521 g to mg (or milligram). Thus, all that we need to do is to multiply 3.521 with 1000 and we will get the corresponding value in milligrams. Thus, in mg, 3.521 g is:
mg
The z-score of the considered newborn having 4,000 g weight is
If we've got a normal distribution, then we can convert it to standard normal distribution and its values will give us the z score.
If we have
(X is following normal distribution with mean and standard deviation
)
then it can be converted to standard normal distribution as
(Know the fact that in continuous distribution, probability of a single point is 0, so we can write
Also, know that if we look for Z = z in z tables, the p value we get is
For the considered case, the statement in the problem is missing the mean weight of the newborn and standard deviation of the data set of weights of newborn.
Thus, for them, we can consider variables in place of their actual values.
Let we have:
Then, the z-score for X = 4000 is
Thus, the z-score of the considered newborn having 4,000 g weight is
