Answer 2

The correct answer is 5.005 kg.

Given:

The quantity: 5kg 5g.

To Find:

5 kg 5 g as kg using decimals.

Solution:

Decimals consist of two parts: a whole part and a fraction which is separated by a decimal point.

To convert the given quantity into decimals, we will write the entire quantity in terms of the greater unit.

We are given 5 kg 5 g.

To find its decimal form, we will convert it into terms of kg.

We know that:

1 kg = 1000g

⇒ 1g = 1/1000 kg.

So, 5g = 5/1000 = 0.005 kg.

So, 5 kg 5 g = 5kg + 5g = 5kg + 0.005kg = 5.005kg.

Hence, we have obtained the decimal expansion of the given quantity.

∴ The correct answer is 5.005 kg.
