345hg=______dg

hero (hero):

Hint: hecto = 100 deci = .1

hero (hero):

Using that info, you can create a proportion: \[\frac{345 \dot\ 100 g}{1} = \frac{x g}{10}\]

hero (hero):

Solve for x

hero (hero):

You can cross multiply here.

hero (hero):

\[10 \dot\ 345 \dot\ 100 g = xg\]

hero (hero):

Dividing both sides by g gets rid of that variable, so now you just have \[10 \dot\ 345 \dot\ 100 = x\]

hero (hero):

x equals the number that goes in the blank.
