Problema Solution
Steven’s mother asked him to buy 750 grams of sugar. At the supermarket, he finds that the sugar packages give the weight in kilograms. What is the amount of sugar in kilograms that Steven needs to buy?
Answer provided by our tutors
1000 grams = 1 kg divide both sides by 1000
1 gram = 1/1000 kg
750 grams = 750*(1/1000) kg = 0.75 kg
Steven needs to buy 0.75 kg of sugar.
