Conversion of Weight

Example 1:

12 g = ______mg
1g = 1000 mg
So, 12 g = 12 x 1000 = 12000 mg

Example 2:

3 dg 5 cg = _______cg
1 dg = 10 cg
So, 3 dg = 3 x 10 = 30 cg
30 cg + 5 cg = 35 cg

Example 3:

17 kg 4 hg 6 dag = _________g

1kg = 1000 g
So, 17 kg = 17 x 1000 = 17000 g

1 hg = 100 g
So, 4 hg = 4 x 100 = 400 g

1 dag = 10 g
So, 6 dag = 6 x 10 = 60 g

(17000 + 400 + 60) g = 17460 g
