Convert 5 ounces into grams. Round your answer to the nearest whole number.
*Note: you must use these exact conversion factors to get this question right.
1 pound (lb) = 16 ounces (oz)
1 ton (ton) = 2000 pounds (lb)
1 gram (g) = 1000 milligrams (mg)
1 kilogram (kg) = 1000 grams (g)
1 ounce (oz) = 28.35 grams (g)
1 pound (lb) = 0.454 kilograms (kg)
To convert 5 ounces to grams, we can use the conversion factor:
1 ounce (oz) = 28.35 grams (g)
So, we can set up the following equation to convert:
5 oz * (28.35 g/1 oz) = 141.75 g
Rounding to the nearest whole number, 141.75 g becomes 142 grams.
