Add 0.0025 kg, 1750 mg, 2.25 g, and 825,000 μg, and express the answer in grams.
kozerog [31]

Answer:

6.75g

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is converting everything to grams, by rules of three. Then we add.

In a rule of three problem, the first step is identifying the measures and how they are related, if their relationship is direct of inverse.

When the relationship between the measures is direct, as the value of one measure increases, the value of the other measure is going to increase too.

When the relationship between the measures is inverse, as the value of one measure increases, the value of the other measure will decrease.

Unit conversion problems, like this one, is an example of a direct relationship between measures.

First step: 0.0025kg to g

Each kg has 1000g, so:

1kg - 1000g

0.0025kg - xg

x = 1000*0.0025 = 2.5g

0.0025kg = 2.5g

Second step:  1750 mg

Each g has 1000mg, so:

1g - 1000mg

xg - 1750mg

1000x = 1750

x = \frac{1750}{1000}

x = 1.75g

1750 mg = 1.75g

2.25g - OK

Third step: 825,000 μg to g

Each g has 1,000,000 ug, so:

1g - 1,000,000 ug

xg - 825,000 ug

1,000,000x = 825,000

x = \frac{825,000}{1,000,000}

x = 0.25g

825,000 μg = 0.25g

Final step: adding everyting

0.25g + 2.25g + 1.75g + 2.50g = 6.75g

How does moving the place of a digit change its value
AlexFokin [52]
In the familiar decimal number system that we use every day, moving the place
of a digit changes its value by a power of 10 .

In a system of numbers to any other base, moving the place of a digit changes
its value by a power of whatever the base of that number system is.
