Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to select the right units for each object.

Part (a)

If we say that the bus had a mass of 8000 grams, this is equivalent to a mass of 8 kg and an adult had a mass of 60 kg, so the bus should have a mass of 8000 kilograms.

Part (b)

The reasonable measure for a pencil is 18 centimeters because millimeters are too small, and meters and kilometers are too much for a pencil.

Part (c)

Since it is a cup of coffee, the correct amount for the cram should be 5 milliliters.

Therefore, the answers are

(a) kilograms

(b) centimeters

(c) millilites.
