Question

metric and measurement hw ch
convert 12,100 g to kg.
○ 0.121 kg
○ 121,000 kg
○ 12,100,000 kg
○ 12.1 kg

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the conversion factor

We know that \(1\space kg = 1000\space g\), so to convert grams to kilograms, we divide the number of grams by \(1000\).

Step2: Perform the conversion

Given \(12100\space g\), we calculate \(\frac{12100}{1000}\).
Simplifying \(\frac{12100}{1000}\), we can divide numerator and denominator by \(100\) to get \(\frac{121}{10}= 12.1\).

Answer:

12.1 kg (the option: 12.1 kg)
