Question

3) Piper uses 630 grams of sugar to make some candy. She has 2 kilograms and 65 grams of sugar left. How much sugar did Piper have at first?

Answer 1

Total amount of sugar she had at first = Sugar used in making candy + sugar left

Total amount of sugar she had at first= 630g + 2kg + 65g

2kg is in an inconsistent unit with the others, so therefore we convert 2kg to grams

1000g = 1kg

2kg = 2000grams

Total amount of sugar she had at first = 630 + 2000 + 65 = 2,695 g

Option B
