Units of Mass and Weight Conversion Chart<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\nMeasuring Mass Examples<\/h3>\n
Example 1:
\n<\/strong>Ram purchased 7 kg 200 g of sugar, 9 kg 395 g of rice. What is the total weight which Ram carried?
\nSolution:
\n<\/strong>Sugar purchased by Ram is 7kg 200g
\nRice purchased by Ram is 9kg 395g
\nNow, we have to find the total weight carried by him.
\nThus, we add both the weights carried by Ram.<\/p>\n7kg\u00a0 200g
\n+ 9kg\u00a0 395g
\n\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014
\n16kg 595g<\/p>\n
Therefore, the total weight carried by Ram is 16kg 595g<\/strong>.<\/p>\nExample 2:
\n<\/strong>Puja purchased 7 kg 420 g of apples. Jaya purchased 5 kg 350 g fewer apples than Puja. Find the quantity of apples purchased by Jaya.
\nSolution:
\n<\/strong>Apples purchased by Puja is 7kg 420g
\nApples purchased by Jaya less than Puja is 5kg 350g
\nNow, we have to measure the quantity of apples purchased by Jaya.
\nWe subtract the number of apples.
\nQuantity of apples purchased = 7kg 420g – 5kg 350g = 2kg 70g.
\nTherefore, apples purchased by Jaya are 2kg 70g.<\/strong><\/p>\nExample 3:
\n<\/strong>Convert 2000g into kilograms.
\nSolution:
\n<\/strong>We knew that 1000g = 1kg
\nNow, have to convert 2000g into kilograms.
\nThe formula for converting grams into kilograms is 1 g = (1\/1000) kg = 0.001 kg
\n<\/strong>Next, we apply the conversion formula
\n2000g = 2000\u00f71000 = 2kg.
\nHence, 2000grams<\/strong> is equal to\u00a02kilogams<\/strong>.<\/p>\nExample 3:
\n<\/strong>Convert 35kg to milligrams.
\nSolution:
\n<\/strong>We know, 1kg = 1000mg and 1mg = 0.001g.
\nNow, we have to convert 35kg to milligrams.
\nThe formula to convert kilograms to milligrams is 1 kg = 106<\/sup> mg = 1000000 mg<\/strong>.
\nNow, let’s apply the conversion formula
\n35kg = 35 \u00d7 1000000 = 35000000mg.
\nTherefore, 35kg<\/strong> is equivalent to 35000000mg or 356<\/sup> mg<\/strong>.<\/p>\nExample 4:
\n<\/strong>Convert 685mg to grams.
\nSolution:
\n<\/strong>As we know, 1g = 1000mg
\nNow, convert 685mg to grams.
\nThe formula to convert milligrams to grams is 1 mg = (1\/1000) g = 0.001 g.
\n<\/strong>Apply, the conversion formula
\n685mg = 685 \u00f7 1000 = 0.685g.
\nThus, 685mg<\/strong> is equivalent to 0.685grams<\/strong>.<\/p>\nExample 5:
\n<\/strong>Convert 89kg 500g to grams.
\nSolution:
\n<\/strong>As we know, one kilogram is equal to thousand grams i.e.,<\/strong> 1kg = 1000g.
\nNow, we have to convert 89kg 500g to grams.
\nFirst, we have to convert kilograms to grams and then have to add to grams given i.e., 500g.
\nThe formula to convert kilograms to grams is 1kg = 1\u00d71000g = 1000grams.
\nLet’s apply the formula for conversion
\n89kg = 89 \u00d7 1000 = 89000grams.
\nNow, we have to add 89000grams to 500grams i.e., 89000+500 = 89500g.
\nThus, 89kg 500g is converted into grams as 89500grams<\/strong>.<\/p>\nFAQs on How to Measure Mass?<\/h3>\n
1. How do we measure mass?<\/strong><\/p>\nWe measure mass based on objects or items we have. The basic SI Units to measure mass are grams(g), kilograms(kg), and tonnes(t). We use the balance tool to measure mass.<\/p>\n
2. What are the units used to measure mass?<\/strong><\/p>\nThe units used to measure mass are milligrams(mg), grams(g), and kilograms(kg), etc.<\/p>\n
3. Can we measure the mass by scale?<\/strong><\/p>\nBy using scale we can’t measure mass directly, because the weight of any object depends on local gravity. Thus, weights are stated in mass units like grams, kilograms.<\/p>\n
4. Why do we measure the mass?<\/strong><\/p>\nMeasuring Mass is important because it measures the amount of force to take while the object moves. Mass is the measurement of the amount of material in an object it contains.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
Mass is the word that we see around us every time. Every object has a mass like a table, a glass, and even air has mass. It is a basic feature property of matter. All objects are light or heavy because of their mass. Mass is used to measure the weight of an object but … Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":107430,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/ccssanswers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Measuring-Mass.png","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ccssanswers.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/106836"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ccssanswers.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ccssanswers.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ccssanswers.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ccssanswers.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=106836"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/ccssanswers.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/106836\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":135928,"href":"https:\/\/ccssanswers.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/106836\/revisions\/135928"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ccssanswers.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/107430"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ccssanswers.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=106836"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ccssanswers.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=106836"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ccssanswers.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=106836"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
