7.45g+41mg=______mg

OpenStudy (australopithecus):

use the same method I used in the last question 1000mg = 1g so make a ratio to cancel out grams \[\frac{1000mg}{1g}*7.45g\]

OpenStudy (australopithecus):

notice how the grams cancel out in this and you are left with mg

OpenStudy (australopithecus):

follow?

OpenStudy (australopithecus):

you can do this with any units btw well except temperature and I'm sure time and some other crazy units

OpenStudy (australopithecus):

but weights, volumes and masses it should be safe

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what about 19mm+6.3cm+.47m=_______m

OpenStudy (australopithecus):

how many cm are in 1 meter

OpenStudy (australopithecus):

how many mm in 1 meter

OpenStudy (australopithecus):

1m = 100cm 1m = 1000mm now just set up a ratio similar to I do where the units cancel out

OpenStudy (australopithecus):

Its like this :) \[\frac{100mg*7.45g}{1g} = \frac{100mg*7.45}{1} = 100mg*7.45\]

OpenStudy (australopithecus):

kind of like treating the units as a number

OpenStudy (australopithecus):

nvm you can do this for time as well, my excuse for stating that is I'm ill
