Given:

Given the conditional statement "If an object weighs 3 kilograms, then the object weighs 300 grams".

Required: Converse, contrapositive and inverse of the statement

Step-by-step explanation:

The converse of a conditional statement, "If p, then q" is "If q then p".

So, the converse of the given statement is,

"If an object weighs 3000 grams, then the object weighs 3 kilograms".

The contrapositive of a conditional statement, "If p, then q" is "If not q, then not p".

So, the contrapositive of the given statement is "If an object not weighs 3000 grams, then the object not weighs 3 kilograms".

The inverse of a conditional statement "If p, then q" is "If not p, then not q."

So, the inverse of the given conditional statement is "If an object not weighs 3 kilograms, then the object not weighs 3000 grams".
