Multiplication of Units of Mass

We can multiply the units of mass kg and g by a number like ordinary numbers.

1. Multiply 115 kg by 6.

Multiply Kg

Hence, 115 kg × 6 = 690 kg

2. Multiply 32 kg 126 g by 7.

Multiply Kg and g

Multiply the grams by 7.

126 × 7 = 882 g. Write 882 under g column.

Multiply the kilograms

32 × 7 = 224 kg

Write 224 under kg column.

Hence, 32 kg 126 g × 7 = 224 kg 882 g.

When measurements are given as combination of two units, we can also first convert the bigger units to lower units and then multiply.


Alternative method:

First convert 32 kg 162 g into gram and then multiply by 7.

Multiplication of Mass

32 kg 126 g = 32000 g + 126 g

                     = 32126 g

32126 × 7 = 224882 g

Convert 224882 g into kg

224882 g = 224000 + 882 g

                  = 224 kg + 882 g

                  = 224 kg 882 g

Hence 32 kg 126 g × 7 = 224 kg 882 g


3. Multiply 19 kg 763 g by 5.

Solution:

First convert 19 kg 763 g into gram and then multiply by 5.

Multiplication of Units of Mass

19 kg 763 g = 19000 g + 763 g

                      = 19763 g

19763 × 5 = 98815 g

Convert 98815 g into kg

98815 g = 98000 + 815 g

               = 98 kg + 815 g

               = 98 kg 815 g

Hence, 19 kg 763 g × 5 = 98 kg 815 g
