Answer:
1,420 milligrams
Step-by-step explanation:
We know there are 100 centigrams in 1 gram, and there are 10 milligrams in a centigrams. That would mean there are 1,000 milligrams in 1 gram (100 * 10 = 1000).
As a result, all you need to do is multiply 1.42 by 1000 to get the amount of milligrams.
1.42 * 1000
Alternatively, to make 1.42 a whole number first, multiply by 100, then add a zero. (That's the other 10!)
(1.42 * 100) * 10
142 * 10
There are 1,420 milligrams in 1.42 grams.
