Question

Micah has a cat and a parrot. Her cat weighs 2.3 kg and her parrot weighs 65 g. How many more kilograms does the cat weigh than the parrot?

Answer 1

first, we must convert 65g into kilograms.

 

1 Kg = 1000 grams, so 65g/1000g/Kg = 0.065Kg

 

then we subtract that number from 2.3Kg to get 2.235Kg

Answer 2

THINK!  This is a good time for Subtraction.
