so we know the equation to get the total forces is


\cfrac{Kg\cdot m}{s^2} ~~ \begin{cases} Kg=kilograms\\ m=meters\\ s=seconds \end{cases}\implies Kg\cdot \cfrac{m}{s^2}\implies Kg\cdot (acceleration)

the idea being, well, we have to do unit conversion, we know the object has a mass of 80 grams, hmmm that's not Kilograms, however since there are 1000 grams in a Kg, we can just convert that, and the acceleration of it is 20 m/s², so


\stackrel{ Kilograms }{\cfrac{80}{1000}}\cdot \stackrel{ accelaration }{20}\qquad \impliedby \textit{sum of the forces}
