Answer:
There are 25,000 marbles in the container
Explanation:
There is a certain number of marbles in a container.
We know each marble has a mass of 80 mg and we also know the total mass of the marbles in the container is 2 Kg.
Since the data is given in different units of mass, we convert them into one unit in common.
Let's convert 2 Kg to milligrams. There are 1,000 grams in a kilogram, and there are 1,000 milligrams in a gram, thus there are one million milligrams in one kilogram, that is:
1 Kg = 1,000,000 mg
And 2 Kg = 2,000,000 mg
The number of marbles can be found by dividing the total mass by the individual mass:
No. of marbles = 2,000,000 / 80 = 25,000
There are 25,000 marbles in the container
