To find the weight of 1 strip, you need to multiply the weight of a capsule by the amount of capsules in 1 strip. Arguably, you could multiply 500 by 60 (for there are 5 strips and 12 capsules per each of those) but solving through steps by elimination makes solving the problem easier.
weight of 1 box = 5 · 6,000 = 30,000
After solving for the weight amount of one strip, you need to solve for the amount in 1 box. There are 5 strips per box, which means that there are 60 capsules per box. Using the answer from finding the weight of 1 strip, you can multiply by the amount of strips per box, getting you to a total of 30,000mg per box.
weight of 32 boxes = 32 · 30,000 = 960,000
simplify = 960,000 ÷ 1,000 = 960
Add units = 960,000mg or 960g
Now you need to multiply the the weight of one box by 32 to find the weight of 32 boxes. After getting 960,000 milligrams, it is better to simplify your units, especially when you have a bigger number, and your final answer should be 960 grams.
Answer:
I think this is the answer but I dont really know
96000
Answer:
960,000mg or 960g
Step-by-step explanation:
1 box = 5 strips (s)
1 strip = 12 capsules (c)
1 capsule = 500 mg
weight of 1 strip = 12 · 500 = 6,000
weight of 1 box = 5 · 6,000 = 30,000
weight of 32 boxes = 32 · 30,000 = 960,000
simplify = 960,000 ÷ 1,000 = 960
Add units = 960,000mg or 960g
