Use the ratio 1,000 grams = q kilogram. How many grams are equal to 2.75 kilograms?
To find out how many grams are equal to 2.75 kilograms, we need to use the given ratio: 1,000 grams = q kilogram.
To solve for q, we divide both sides of the equation by 1,000:
1,000 grams / 1,000 = q kilogram / 1,000
This simplifies to:
1 = q / 1,000
Now we multiply both sides of the equation by 1,000 to isolate q:
1 * 1,000 = q * 1,000 / 1
This simplifies to:
1,000 = q
So, 1 kilogram is equal to 1,000 grams.
Now we can find out how many grams are equal to 2.75 kilograms by multiplying 2.75 by 1,000:
2.75 kilograms * 1,000 grams/kilogram = 2,750 grams
Therefore, 2.75 kilograms is equal to 2,750 grams.
