A) 400 grams
B) 425 grams
C) 640 grams
D) 4000 grams​

Respuesta :

Answer:

4000 gm

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use ratios to solve

Change 8 m to cm

8m * 100cm/1m = 800 cm

6 cm             800 cm

-------------  = ------------

30 grams      x gm

Using cross products

6 * x = 800 * 30

6x = 24000

Divide by 6

6x/6 = 24000/6

x = 4000 gm
