Notice that:

$\begin{gathered} -23<-21, \\ 8.3<10. \end{gathered}$

Therefore:

$8.3*10^(-24)<10*10^(-24)=10^(-23)<10^(-21)<1.66*10^(-21)\text{.}$

Then a carat is greater.

Now, since:

$1atomic\text{ mass unit=8.3}*10^(-24)carat.$

Then:

$(1)/(8.3)*10^(24)\text{atomic mass unit=1carat.}$

Simplifying the above result we get:

$1\text{carat}=1.20*10^(23)\text{atomic mass units.}$

Also, since:

$1\text{atomic mass unit=1.66}*10^(-21)milligram$

then:

$(1)/(1.66)*10^(21)\text{atomic mass unit=1 milligram.}$

Simplifying the above result we get:

$1\text{ milligram=6.02}*10^(20)atomic\text{ mass units.}$

Answer:

A carat is greater.

$1\text{carat}=1.20*10^(23)\text{atomic mass units.}$

and

$1\text{ milligram=6.02}*10^(20)atomic\text{ mass units.}$
