Question

In a science experiment, Shelly has to weigh a compound in grams. The balance in her school measures in milligrams (mg). Shelly finds that the weight of the compound is 8,450 mg. What is the value in grams (g) that Shelly should enter? (grams : milligrams = 1 : 1,000)

Answer 1

i believe it's 8.45 grams

Answer 2

We know, 1 g = 1000 mg
so, 1 mg = 1/1000 g
then, 8,450 mg = 1/1000 * 8,450 = 8.450 g

In short, Your Answer would be: 8.450 Grams

Hope this helps!
