The average mass of a car in the US is 1.440 x 10^6 g. Express this mass in kg.

Answer 1

Answer:

Average mass of acar in the US (in kg) = 1440 kg

Explanation:

Average mass of a car in the US (in g) = 1.440 × 10⁶ g

Mass in kg:

$\rm 1 \: g = {10}^{ - 3} \: kg \\ \\ \rm 1.440 \times 10^6 \ g = 1.440 \times 10^6 \times {10}^{ - 3} \ kg \\ \\ \rm = 1.440 \times 10^{6 - 3} \ kg \\ \\ \rm = 1.440 \times 10^3 \ kg \\ \\ \rm = 1.440 \times 1000 \ kg \\ \\ \rm = 1440 \ kg$
