Explanation:

1 kg = 1000 g

as k stands for "kilo" meaning 1000.

250 g fit therefore 4 times into 1 kg.

and then 2×4 = 8 times into 2×1 = 2 kg.

so, there can be 8 250 g packets made from 2 kg.

Answer: 250 grams/packet = 8 packets.

Explanation:

To find the number of 250g packets of biscuits that can be made from 2kg of biscuits, we need to first convert the weight of the biscuits to the same unit of measurement. Since 1 kilogram is equal to 1000 grams, 2kg of biscuits is equal to 2000 grams. Therefore, the number of 250g packets of biscuits that can be made from 2kg of biscuits is 2000 grams / 250 grams/packet = 8 packets.
