Answer:

pounds

Explanation:

10³ = 10(10)(10) = 1000

4.5(1000) = 4500

4500 grams would be much too small for a car.

4500 tons would be 4500(2000) = 9000000 pounds; this would be much too large for a car.

4500 ounces would be much too small for a car.

4500 pounds, however, is about the right size for a car.
