Answer:

1. 2507.034 g

2. 1243mg

   0.001243kg

   1,243,000 mcg

3. 162.5g

Step-by-step explanation:

1. First of all we need to convert 30mg and 2.5kg to gram.

⇒ 1 gram = 1000 milligrams

         x     =  35mg  

⇒ 1000mg(x) = 35mg

⇒ x = 35mg    =   35   =  0.035g

        1000mg    1000

Next we convert 2.5kg to gm.

⇒ 1 kilogram = 1000g

     2.5kg   =   x  

(We then criss cross)

⇒ x = 2.5kg × 1000g = 2500g  = 2500g

                 1kg                    1

Now that we converted them all to gram, we will add them.

⇒ 30mg + 2.5kg + 7g = 0.035g + 2500g + 7g = 2507.035 ≈ 2507g

2.  We convert 1.234g into

a. mg

⇒ 1 gram = 1000 milligram

    1.243g = x

⇒ x = 1.243g × 1000mg = 1243mg = 1243mg

                1g                      1

b. kg

⇒ 1 kilogram = 1000gram

                  x =   1.243 gram

⇒ x = 1.243g × 1kg  =   1.243kg = 0.001243kg = 1.243 × 10⁻³ kg

                1000g            1000

c. mcg

⇒  1 gram = 1000000mcg

    1.243g =  x

⇒ x = 1.243g × 1,000,000mcg  = 1,243,000mcg = 1,243,000mcg

                        1 g                                   1

3. We need 500 aspirin, the amount of grams needed and we know that one tablet contains 325mg.

So now we can derive the formula such that:

⇒ 1 tablet      = 325mg

   500 tablet =  x

But first we need to convert 325mg to grams.

⇒ 1 gram = 1000mg

      x   =  325mg

⇒ x = 325mg × 1 g = 325g = 0.325g

              1000mg     1000

So now instead of using 325mg we can use 0.325g.

⇒ 1 tablet   =  0.325g

    500 tablets =  x

⇒ x = 500 tablets × 0.325g  =  162.5g = 162.5g

                      1  tablet                   1
