Answer:
a) 1.248 x 10⁷ kg
b) 1.248 x 10⁴ Mg
c) 1.248 x 10¹³ mg
d) 1.248 x 10⁴ ton
Explanation:
a) Since 1000 g = 1 kg we can convert grams to kg by multiplyig any given quantity in grams by the conversion factor ( 1 kg / 1000 g):
1.248 x 10¹⁰ g * (1 kg / 1000 g) = 1.248 x 10⁷ kg
b) Since 1 Mg = 1 x 10⁶ g, the conversion factor will be ( 1 Mg / 1 x 10⁶ g):
1.248 x 10¹⁰ g * ( 1 Mg / 1 x 10⁶ g) = 1.248 x 10⁴ Mg
c) Since 1 mg = 1 x 10⁻³ g, the conversion factor will be ( 1 mg / 1 x 10⁻³ g):
1.248 x 10¹⁰ g ( 1 mg / 1 x 10⁻³ g) = 1.248 x 10¹³ mg
d) Since 1 metric ton = 1000 kg and 1000 g = 1 kg, we can use these conversions factors: ( 1 kg / 1000 g) and (1 ton / 1000 kg):
1.248 x 10¹⁰ g * ( 1 kg / 1000 g) * ( 1 ton / 1000 kg) = 1.248 x 10⁴ ton
