Give some examples of Mass conversions.
Converting pounds into grams
1 kilogram = 1000 grams
To convert pounds into grams, we multiply by 1000 times the number of pounds.

7 pounds = 7 × 1000 = 7000 grams
Converting grams into pounds
1 gram = 1000 kilograms
By dividing one kilogram from 1000, we get a conversion in grams
