Measurement of Weight
There are many objects around us which
are very heavy, such as a table, a sofa, a car
and a truck.
We can measure the weight of all sorts of
objects (small and large). We need a
standard unit for this task. This international standard unit to measure
weight is gram.
The standard weights in common use are the following :
500 g
500 g
200 g
200 g
100 g 200 g 500 g

Conversion of Weight
Conversion of Grams into Kilograms
Example : Convert 45289 gram into kilograms.
Solution : 1 g = 1 ÷ 1000 kg
= 45289 ÷ 1000 kg
= 45 kg 289 g
