Question

Kayla is going on a trip. The mass of everything she is packing is 5.3 kg.

She packs everything into a bag that has a mass when empty of 760 g.
What is the total mass of the bag and its contents?
Give your answer in g

Answer 1

convert the kg to grams first
1kg = 1000g
5.3 kg= 5300g
now add the two masses

5300g + 760g = 6060 g

if wanted in kg it will be: 6.06 kg

Answer 2

6060 grams

Explanation:

M = 5.3kg + 760g

= 5300g + 760g

= 6060 grams
