Answer 1

3400 grams.

Explanation:

We have been that Noah made 12 kg of trail mix for his family's hiking trip. His family ate 8600 g of the trail mix on the hiking trip.

Let us convert 12 kg into grams.

1 kg= 1000 grams

12 kg = 12*1000 grams =12000 grams.

Let u subtract 8600 from 12000 grams to find the amount of trail mix left.

`\text{The amount of trail mix left}=12000-8600`

`\text{The amount of trail mix left}=3400`

Therefore, Noah had 3400 grams left of trail mix.
