Mass

5.2  Mass
 
We will learn about the units of mass found in mathematics.
 

Mass units:

  • Kilogram (kg)
  • Gram (g)
 
 
 
To convert kilograms to grams, you just need to multiply (x) 1000.
 
For example:
 

80 kg to g = \(80\times1000\)

                    = 80 000 g

 
To convert grams to kilograms, you only need to divide by 1000.
 
For example:
 

700 g to kg = \((700\div1000)\)

                      = 0.7 g
