Answer 1

12,579,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Kilogram (kg) and centigram (cg) are units of mass. It is important to know the value of each when converting from one to the other and vice-versa.

Take note that: 1 kg is equivalent to 100,000 cg

Conversion may be done through the direct proportion method.

Let x be the number of what we're looking for.

Step 1:
`(1 kg)/(10,000 cg)` multiplied by
`(125.79 kg)/(x)` = ?

Step 2: Then, we may cross multiply

`(1 kg (x))/(100,000 cg (125.79 kg))` = ?

Step 3:
`(x)/(12,579,000 cg)` = ?

Step 4: Therefore, x is equivalent to 12,579,000 cg
