How do you convert 4,200 decigrams to grams?

Answer 1

Skylar Adams

#4200# dg#=420# g

g stands for grams and dg for decigrams.

#1# g#=10# dg #=> 1# dg #=1/10=0.1# g or #10^-1# g

You have #4200# dg #=> 4200/10=420# g

Notice that if it was centigrams (cg) or milligrams (mg) you would have divided by #100# and #1000# respectively.

Hope this helps :)

To convert decigrams to grams, you use the conversion factor that 1 decigram (dg) is equal to 0.1 grams (g).

So, to convert 4,200 decigrams to grams, you multiply 4,200 by the conversion factor:

4,200 decigrams * 0.1 grams/decigram = 420 grams.

Therefore, 4,200 decigrams is equal to 420 grams.
