Answer:

Explanation:

First, you have to convert the units, since kilograms and grams aren't the same unit. 1000 grams=1 kilogram. Keep that in mind, and lets move on.

So, that means 3 kilograms=3,000 grams. Let's rewrite our ratio.

500g:3,000g

So now they're the same units, but it isn't simplified. This last parts easy. To simplify a ratio, find the number you can divided both number with. In this situation, that number is 500. 500 divided by 500= 1, and 3,000 divided by 500= 6.

Final Simplified Ratio: 1g:6g

Hope this helped :)
