From the information we have, there are 696 g and 8000 mg
We need to know how many grams in total that there are in the figure.
First we convert all the milligrams to grams. This will be:
1000 mg = 1 gram
8000 mg = x
Where x is number of grams (from 8000 mg)
Cross multiply this equation you get
1000 x = 8000
so x = 8000 /1000
x = 8 grams.
We do not need to touch the 696 because it's already in grams.
So now we can say there are 696 grams and 8 grams. The unit (gram) is now same in both.
Its like saying there are 2 horses and 1 horse. These are simply 3 horses.
So we add these two: 696 + 8 = 704
Therefore the answer is 704 grams
