Answer 1

E) 1.56x10⁴g

Step-by-step explanation:

Pounds and grams are both units of mass. Pounds are used in UK and USA. Grams is the unit of mass used in the international system of units, SI.

To convert pounds, lb, to grams, g, we need the equivalence between these 2 units of mass:

1lb = 453.6g

That means 1lb weighs 453.6g. 34.4lb weigh:

34.4lb * (453.6g / 1lb) = 1.56x10⁴g. That means right option is:

E) 1.56x10⁴g
