Brandon's backpack weighs = 3140 grams.

We know, 1000 grams in a kilogram.

Therefore, 3140 grams = 3000 grams + 140 grams = 3 kilogram 140 grams.

Brandon weighs(without backpack) = 22 kg 610 grams more than his backpack.

More than pharse represents addition.

22 kg 610 grams more than backpack weighs = 22 kg 610 grams + 3 Kg 140 = 25 Kg 750 grams.

Therefore, Brandon weighs(without backpack) = 25 Kg 750 grams.

Total weight of Brandon weighs and backpack weighs = Brandon weighs(without backpack) + backpack weighs.

= 25 Kg 750 grams + 3 Kg 140 grams

= 28 Kg 890 grams.

Therefore, Brandon got 28 Kg 890 grams on a scale when wearing his backpack.
