Question

PLEASE HELP ME OUT!!!

Convert the following

0.005 kg = _____ dag

0.075 m = ______ cm

Answer 1

0.005 kg = 0.5 dag
0.075 m = 7.5 cm

Answer 2

Answer: 0.5 dag and 7.5 cm

Explanation:

1 Decagram (dag) =10^-2 kg

We can change this into a conversion factor by dividing either side into the other. Since we want to change Kg into dag, I'll divide both sides by 10^-2kg:

1 Decagram (dag)/10^-2 kg = 1

Now we can multiply this times 0.005 kg:

(0.005 kg)*(1 Decagram (dag)/10^-2 kg)

this equals 0.5 dag

------------

100 cm = 1 meter

(100 cm/1 meter): Conversion factor

(0.075 m)*((100 cm/1 meter) = 7.5 cm
