Question

Given that vat contains 9600 kg of milk, what is the mass of mg of the milk that vat contains?

Answer 1

9.6x10⁹ mg

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this problem we need to convert 9600 kg into mg.

First we convert 9600 kg into g, keeping in mind that 1 kg = 1000 g:

9600 kg *
`(1000g)/(1kg)` = 9.6x10⁶ g

Then we convert 9.6x10⁶ g into mg, keeping in mind that 1 g = 1000 mg:

9.6x10⁶ g *
`(1000mg)/(1g)` = 9.6x10⁹ mg

The mass of milk miligrams is 9.6x10⁹.
