Question

Badhana bought 6250 g of sugar. What is its weight in kg?

• A. 6.250 kg
• B. 6.750 kg
• C. 62.50 kg
• D. 0.625 kg

Answer 1

The correct option is A 6.250 kg

$1000\text{g}=1\text{kg}$
$\Rightarrow 1\text{g}=\frac{1}{1000}\text{kg}$
$\therefore 6250.0\text{g}=6250.0\times \frac{1}{1000}\text{kg}$

Shifting the decimal point in 6250.0 three places to the left, we have 6250.0 g = 6.250 kg.
