    LO: to convert weights (1)


    1 kg = 1000 g so that means that… 1000 g = 1 kg

    2 kg = 2000 g so that means that… 2000 g = 2 kg

    You carry on. Keep a check on those zeros!

    3 kg = ______ so that means that… _____ = 3 kg

    4 kg = ______ so that means that… _____ = 4 kg

    5 kg = ______ so that means that… _____ = 5 kg

    ___ = 6000 g so that means that… 6000 g = ___

    ___ = 7000 g so that means that… 7000 g = ___

    ___ = 8000 g so that means that… 8000 g = ___

    ___ = 9000 g so that means that… 9000 g = ___

    ___ = 10000 g so that means that… 10000 g = ___

    But what happens if you only have half a kilogram? How do you write
    this? How do you convert it to grams?

    Remember 1 whole kg is 1000g, so half of 1000g is 500g.

    Half a kilogram is sometimes shown like this >>>> 0.5kg.

    So…

    1.5 kg = 1500 g so that means that… 1500 g = 1.5 kg

    2.5 kg = 2500 g so that means that… 2500 g = 2.5 kg

    You carry on.

    3.5 kg = ____ g so that means that… ____ g = 3.5 kg

    4.5 kg = ____ g so that means that… ____ g = 4.5 kg

    5.5 kg = ____ g so that means that… ____ g = ___ kg

    6.5 kg = ____ g so that means that… ____ g = ___kg

    _____ = 7500 g so that means that… 7500 g = ____ kg

    _____ = 8500 g so that means that… 8500 g = ____ kg

    _____ = 9500 g so that means that… _____ = ______

    _____ = 10500 g so that means that… _____ = ______

    LO: to convert weights (4)


    1000 g = 1 kg so that means that… 1 kg = 1000 g

    But what happens when you have less than 1000 g, lets say 800 g.
    How do you convert this to kg?

    Remember that 1000 g = 1 whole kg, so when you have any amounts
    less than a whole kg you need to use a decimal point.

    100 g = 0.1 kg so that means that 0.1 kg = 100 g

    200 g = _____ so that means that ____ = 200 g

    300 g = _____ so that means that ____ = 300 g

    400 g = _____ so that means that ____ = 400 g

    500 g = _____ so that means that ____ = 500 g

    600 g = _____ so that means that ____ = _____

    700 g = _____ so that means that ____ = _____

    800 g = _____ so that means that ____ = _____

    900 g = _____ so that means that ____ = _____

    But what happens when you have more than 1 kg, for example 1100g.
    How do you convert this?

    Partition the number like this> 1000g and 100g. You know that 1000 g
    is the same as 1 whole kg = 1 kg, and from doing your work on the
    other sheet you know you write 100 g as 0.1 kg. So, 1 plus 0.1 = 1.1 kg.

    1200 g = 1000 g + 200 g = 1 kg + 0.2 kg = 1.2 kg

    2700 g = 2000 g + 700 g = 2 kg + 0.7 kg = 2.7 kg

    3800 g = ____________________________________________

    4400 g = ____________________________________________

    5900 g = ____________________________________________

    9200 g = ____________________________________________

    Look carefully at these next questions. Look how many whole


    kilograms we have to help you work out the answer. Partition the
    amounts. For example 1.4 kg = 1 whole kilogram and 0.4 of kilogram.
    You know that 1 kg = 1000g and that 0.4 kg = 400g. So add them
    together and your answer will be 1400 g.

    2.7 kg = 2 kg + 0.7 kg = 2000 g + 700 g = 2700 g

    3.6 kg = _____________________________________________

    5.6 kg = _____________________________________________

    8.1 kg = _____________________________________________

    8.3 kg = _____________________________________________

    9.4 kg = _____________________________________________
