Given:

Weight of the giraffe = 65 kg

Determine the weight in grams.

Solution:

In order to determine the weight of the giraffe in grams, we simply needed to use the general conversion method.

1 kg = 1000 grams

= (65 kg)(1000 g/1kg)

The unit kg cancels.

= 65,000g/1

= 65,000 g

Final answer:

= 65,000 g
