Answer:

The slipper weighs 6000 mg

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the scale is balanced, the weight of the ballet slipper will also be 6g

Weight of the ballet slipper = 6 g

1 gram = 1000 mg

Weight of the ballet slipper = 6 x 1000 mg

Weight of the ballet slipper = 6000 mg

The slipper weighs 6000 mg
