Mass has the following units in the metric system.
1 milligram = 0.001 gram
1 centigram = 0.01 gram
1 decigram = 0.1 gram
1 kilogram = 1000 grams
Here are the symbols for those units.
1 milligram = 1 mg
1 centigram = 1 cg
1 decigram = 1 dg
1 gram = 1 g
1 kilogram = 1 kg
To see which unit to use, we look at the object. A tv, is way more than a gram or a milligram,so those don't make sense to use, even though we could.
We would use kg.
