<u>Answer:</u> 1.0 kilograms.
<u>Explanation:</u>
One kilogram is equal to a thousand grams.
Supposing x to be the number of kilograms equal to one thousand and eight grams, we can write it as:
1 kg = 1000 grams
x kg = 1008 grams
To solve for x, we can simply divide 1008 grams by 1000 thousand grams to get the answer.
x = 1008 / 1000
x = 1.008
Rounding this value to the nearest tenth, it will become 1.0 kilograms.
