Convert the following and fill in the missing blocks.


Shane bought 3 L of apple juice, 1 L of grape juice and 2 L of orange juice. How many millilitres of juice did he buy in all?
Quantity of apple juice = 3 L
Quantity of grape juice = 1 L
Quantity of orange juice = 2 L
Total quantity of juice = (3 + 1 + 2) L
= 6 L
1 L = 1000 mL
6 L = (6 X 1,000) mL
= 6,000 mL
Thus, Shane bought 6,000 mL of juice in all.
Convert the following into L and then subtract.
12 kL 6 hL 4 daL 3 L from 24 kL 7 L
12 kL 6 hL 4 daL 3 L = 12,643 L
24 kL 7 L = 24,007 L
24,007 L – 12,643 L = 11,364 L
Convert the following measurements into litres and then add.
9 kL 8 hL 4 daL 2 L, 52 kL 9 hL 9 daL 2 L and 6 kL 2 hL 3 L.
9 kL 8 hL 4 daL 2 L = 9,842 L
52 kL 9 hL 9 daL 2 L = 52,992 L
6 kL 2 hL 3 L = 6,203 L
9,842 L + 52,992 L + 6,203 L
= 69,037 L
Convert the given measurements into the units mentioned.
a. 2690 hL to kL
b. 8500 dL to daL
The capacity of a bucket is 50 L. What is its capacity in cL?
1 L = 100 cL
50 L = (50 X 100) cL
= 5,000 cL
Thus, the capacity of the bucket is 5,000 cL.
Convert 3694 kL into:
a.1 kL = 1000 L
So, 3694 kL = (3694 X 1000 ) L
= 36,94,000 L
b.1 kL = 10 hL
So, 3694 kL = (3694 X 10) hL
= 36,940 hL
6542 L of water is consumed by a family in one month. Calculate the quantity of water consumed in litres and millilitres.
6542 L = (6000 + 542) L
= 6 L + 542 mL
6 L 542 mL of water is consumed by the family.
Convert into lower unit and add: 75 L 24 mL and 14 L 746 mL
75 L 24 mL = 75,024 mL
14 L 746 mL = 14,746 mL
Now, 75,024 mL + 14,746 mL = 89,770 mL
How many L are there in 412 kL?
1 kL = 1,000 L
So, 412 kL = (412 X 1,000) L
= 4,12,000 L
Thus, there are 4,12,000 L in 412 kL.
How many cL are there in 23 L?
1 L = 100 cL
So, 23 L = (23 X 100) cL
= 2300 cL
Thus, there are 2300 cL in 23 L.
Express 12,000 L in kL.
1 kL = 1000 L
12,000 L = (12,000 ÷ 1000) kL
= 12 kL
Express 862 L in cL.
1 L = 100 cL
862 L = (862 X 100) cL

Convert the following into grams and then subtract.
8 kg 9 hg 6 dag 7 g from 15 kg 8 g
8 kg 9 hg 6 dag 7 g = 8967 g
15 kg 8 g = 15008 g
15008 g – 8967 g = 6041 g
Convert the following into grams and then add.
6 kg 8 hg 7 dag 5 g; 15 kg 9 hg 8 dag 5 g; 2 kg 7 hg 5 g.
6 kg 8 hg 7 dag 5 g = 6875 g
15 kg 9 hg 8 dag 5 g = 15985 g
2 kg 7 hg 5 g = 2705 g
6875 g + 15985 g + 2705 g
= 25565 g
Convert the given measurements into the units mentioned.

A pizza weighing 810 g is cut into 9 equal pieces. How many milligrams does each piece weigh?
Weight of pizza = 810 g
Number of pieces = 9
Weight of each piece = (810 ÷ 9) g
= 90 g
Also, 1 g = 1000 mg
So , 90 g = (90 X 1000) mg
= 90,000 mg
Thus, each piece weighs 90,000 mg.
Convert the given measurements into the units mentioned.
a. 459 kg to dag
b. 631 g to mg
c. 8745 hg to g
a. (459 x 100) dag
= 45,900 dag
b. (631 x 1000) mg
= 6,31,000 mg
c. (8745 x 100) g
= 8,74,500 g
Convert 5693 kg into:
So, 5693 kg = (5693 X 1000) g
= 5693000 g
So, 5693 kg = (5693 X 10) hg
= 56930 hg
8623 g of sugar is consumed by a family within a month. Convert the amount of sugar consumed in kilograms and grams.
8623 g = (8000 + 623) g
= 8 kg + 623 g
So, the family consumed 8 kilograms and 623 grams of sugar in a month.
Convert into lower unit and add: 12 g 85 mg and 9 g 456 mg
12 g 85 mg = 12085 mg
9 g 456 mg = 9456 mg
Now, 12085 mg + 9456 mg = 21541 mg
Express 79 kg in g.
1 kg = 1000 g
So, 79 kg = (79 X 1000) g
= 79000 g

A porter was carrying two bags- one weighing 87 kg 256 g and the other weighing 59 kg 641 g. How much weight was the porter carrying?
Weight of one bag = 87 kg 256 g
Weight of other bag = 59 kg 641 g
Total weight of the bags = 87 kg 256 g + 59 kg 641 g
= 146 kg 897 g
Thus, the porter was carrying 146 kg 897 g weight.
A basket of fruits weighs 5 kg 125 g. What will be the weight of 12 such baskets?
Weight of 1 basket = 5 kg 125 g
Weight of 12 baskets = 5 kg 125 g x 12
= 60 kg 1500 g
So, 12 baskets will weigh 60 kg 1500 g.
A pizza weighing 900 g is cut into 9 equal pieces. How much does each piece weigh?
Weight of pizza = 900 g
Number of pieces = 9
Weight of each piece = (900 ÷ 9) g

Mary is 4260 g heavier than her friend Rachel. If Rachel weighs 47 kg 250 g, what is Mary’s weight?
Rachel’s weight = 47 kg 250 g
Mary’s weight = 47 kg 250 g + 4260 g
= 47 kg 250 g + (4000 g + 260 g)
= 47 kg 250 g + 4 kg 260 g
= 51 kg 510 g
Thus, Mary’s weight is 51 kg 510 g.
Four packs of sugar weigh 6 kg 345 g, 8 kg 240 g, 3 kg 158 g and 4 kg 210 g respectively. What is the total quantity of sugar in the four packets?
Total quantity of sugar = 6 kg 345g + 8 kg 240 g + 3 kg 158 g + 4 kg 210g
= 21 kg 953 g
Anny is 12 kg heavier than her friend Rachel. If Rachel weighs 37 kg 250 g, find Anny’s weight.
Weight of Rachel = 37 kg 250 g

= 49 kg 250 g
So, Anny’s weight is 49 kg 250 g.
Sammy bought 860 g of apples, 765 g grapes and 995 g oranges. How many grams of fruits did he buy?
Mass of apples = 860 g
Mass of grapes = 765 g
Mass of oranges = 995 g
Total mass of fruits = 860 g + 765 g + 995 g
= 2620 g
So, Sammy bought 2620 grams of fruits.
One egg has a mass of 50 grams. What is the mass of 40 eggs?

Nadia went to a candy shop. She purchased 3 kg 500 g of chewy candy, 2 kg 250 g of coconut candy, 6 kg of chocolate candy. Calculate the total quantity of candies she purchased.
Weight of chewy candy = 3 kg 500 g
Weight of coconut candy = 2 kg 250 g
Weight of chocolate candy = 6 kg
Total quantity of candies purchased = 3 kg 500 g + 2 kg 250 g + 6 kg
= 11 kg 750 g
Thus, Nadia purchased 11 kg 750 g candies.
Ralph had an orange and a banana. The banana weighed 635 grams and the orange weighed 115 grams less than the weight of the banana. What was the weight of the orange?
Weight of banana = 635 g
