Answer:

c. 50kg = 50,000g

Explanation:

We have to solve these following rule of three to see which of the following is a correct conversion of 50kg.

a)

Each kg has 1000g

So

1kg - 1000g

50kg - xg

x = 50*1000

x = 50,000g

Conversion a) is wrong

b)

Each kg has 1000000mg

So

1kg - 1000000g

50kg - x mg

x = 50*1000000

x = 50,000,000 mg

Conversion b) is wrong

c)

In a), we have already converted 50kg to g. We have verified that 50kg = 50,000g. So c. is correct

d)

In b), we have already converrted 50kg to mg. We have verified that 50kg = 50,000,000g. So d. is wrong
