Large numbers in practice
1) Ex- How many centimetres make a kilometre?
Solution: 1 km = 1000 m = (1000 x 100) cm = 1,00,000 cm (AS 1 m = 100 cm)
So, 1,00,000 centimetres make a kilometre.
2) A box contains 2,00,000 medicine tablets each weighing 20 mg. What is the total
weight of all the tablets in the box in grams and in kilograms?
Solution: weight of each tablet = 20 mg
weight of 2,00,000 tablets = 2,00,000 x 20 mg = 40,00,000 mg
ଵ
1 mg = g
ଵ
ଵ
So, 40,00,000 mg = (40,00,000 x )g = 4000 g
ଵ
ଵ
1 g = kg
ଵ
ଵ
So, 4000 g = (4000 x ) kg = 4 kg
