To convert from centigrams (cg) to kilograms (kg), the decimal is move 5 spaces to the left, which is performed mathematically by dividing the number of centigrams by 10,000.
For example: 1 cg = 0.00001 kg
Remember K H D | d c m. Kilograms is three places to the left of grams. So you have to move the decimal place three times to the left. So in this case the answer is 1 kilogram.
It depends what they are fractions of. For fractions of kilograms, simply multiply by 1000 (move the decimal point 3 places to the right).
You move decimal one place to the left when dividing by ten You move decimal two places to the left when dividing by 100 You move decimal three places to the left when dividing by 1000, etc...
Three. Count number of zeros. If multiply decimal by 100 move decimal point 2 places, etc.
Yes. You first multiply, then however many decimal places you were multiplying, you move over.
The decimal point moves five places to the right.
right 5 spaces
It moves 5 places to the left.
When moving from larger values to smaller ones, there will be more of them. That means multiplication which makes the decimal point appear to move to the right.
3.2 centigrams is equal to .0032 Decagrams! all you have to do is move the decimal over three spots ...or divide by 1,000..I think that moving the decimal is easier though.
Move the decimal two places to the left. 74 cg= .74 g
kilograms= 1,000 grams to make kilograms to grams, move the decimal three spaces to the right. To make grams into kilograms, move the decimal three spaces to the left.
4532000, just move the decimal place over 3
To turn Centigrams into grams you simply move the decimal point to the right twice. so if your pencil weighed 2 grams then it would way 200 centigrams
163.3 You just move the decimal 3 places to the right.163.3 kg
US nickels weigh 5 grams each. Move the decimal point 3 places to the left to convert to kilograms: 0.005 kg
1 kilogram = 1000 grams. Basically, move the decimal backwards three times and obtain 0.275kg.
