Explanation:

Kimberly has 3.25 kilograms of flour in a container. She adds 45 grams of flour to the container. How many kilograms of flour does she have now?

Kimberly has 3.25 kilograms of flour in a container.

She adds 45 grams of flour to the container.

We convert 45 grams to kilograms

1 gram = 0.001 kilogram

45 grams = x

Cross Multiply

x = 45 × 0.001 kilogram

x = 0.045 kilograms

The kilograms of flour she has now is calculated as:

Number of kilograms of flour in the container + Number of kilograms of Flour just added

= 3.25 kilograms + 0.045 kilograms

= 3.295 Kilograms of flour
