Step-by-step solution for: Grams & Kilograms Worksheets - Top Teacher
Since I can't view or access images directly, I can’t see the specific details of your uploaded worksheet. However, based on the text and layout you've described, it appears to be a math worksheet focused on understanding grams (g) and kilograms (kg), particularly for students learning about mass measurement.
Let me walk through each section of the worksheet as described and explain how to solve each type of problem. You can use this guide to fill in the answers correctly.
---
Each student has a weight shown (e.g., 500g, 400g, etc.). Since 1 kilogram = 1000 grams, subtract each student's current weight from 1000g to find how many more grams they need.
Example:
- Student with 500g → 1000 - 500 = 500g more needed
- Student with 400g → 1000 - 400 = 600g more needed
- Student with 250g → 1000 - 250 = 750g more needed
👉 Fill in the blanks under each student with these differences.
---
Look at each group of items with their weights and find combinations of three weights that total 1000g.
Example:
- Group 1: Apple (250g), Banana (100g), Watermelon (800g)
→ 250 + 100 + 800 = 1150g ✘ Too much
Try: 250 + 100 + ? → Need 650g → Not available
But if another group has:
- Pepper (50g), Cheese (750g), Pumpkin (200g) → 50 + 750 + 200 = 1000g ✔
👉 Circle those three items.
---
You're given a balance scale from 0g to 500g. You need to draw where each item should go based on its weight:
- Bread: 700g → but scale only goes to 500g → so it’s too heavy for this scale
- Canned food: 300g → place at 300g mark
- Flower: 400g → place at 400g mark
👉 Draw lines or marks at 300g and 400g. Note that 700g is outside the scale range.
---
Compare the items in each row and pick the one that is likely the heaviest:
1. Teddy bear, soccer ball, bowling ball, camera
→ Bowling ball is typically heaviest
2. Shoe, turkey, taco, loaf of bread
→ Turkey is heaviest
3. Worm, butterfly, ladybug, frog
→ Frog is heaviest
👉 Circle the heaviest in each row.
---
List of items with weights:
- Basket of apples: 2kg = 2000g
- Hamburger: 75g
- Milk carton: 1000g
- Cookie: 30g
- Jar of popcorn: 1.5kg = 1500g
Convert all to grams:
- Cookie: 30g → 1st (lightest)
- Hamburger: 75g → 2nd
- Milk: 1000g → 3rd
- Popcorn: 1500g → 4th
- Apples: 2000g → 5th (heaviest)
👉 Number them accordingly.
---
Each scale shows an object on one side and empty pans on the other. You must add standard weights (like 1kg, 500g, 250g, 100g, etc.) to balance.
Examples:
- Object weighs 2.5kg → Use: 2kg + 500g
- Object weighs 800g → Use: 500g + 250g + 50g? Or 500g + 200g + 100g → depends on available weights.
- Object weighs 1.3kg → Use: 1kg + 250g + 50g = 1300g
- Object weighs 75g → Use: 50g + 20g + 5g → but if only standard weights are allowed, maybe 50g + 20g + 5g?
👉 Use common metric weights: 1kg, 500g, 250g, 100g, 50g, 20g, 10g, 5g, etc.
Draw the appropriate combination on the right side of each scale.
---
- 1 kg = 1000 g
- Heavier objects have greater mass
- Add weights to reach 1000g for 1kg
- Compare masses using real-world knowledge (e.g., a turkey > a shoe)
- Balance scales by matching total mass on both sides
---
If you can describe any specific part you're stuck on (e.g., which group of weights adds to 1000g, or which item is heaviest), I can help you solve that exact question!

🔹 Section 1: "How many more grams does each student need to make 1 kg?"
Each student has a weight shown (e.g., 500g, 400g, etc.). Since 1 kilogram = 1000 grams, subtract each student's current weight from 1000g to find how many more grams they need.
Example:
- Student with 500g → 1000 - 500 = 500g more needed
- Student with 400g → 1000 - 400 = 600g more needed
- Student with 250g → 1000 - 250 = 750g more needed
👉 Fill in the blanks under each student with these differences.
---
🔹 Section 2: "For each box, circle the 3 weights that add up to 1 kg (1000g)"
Look at each group of items with their weights and find combinations of three weights that total 1000g.
Example:
- Group 1: Apple (250g), Banana (100g), Watermelon (800g)
→ 250 + 100 + 800 = 1150g ✘ Too much
Try: 250 + 100 + ? → Need 650g → Not available
But if another group has:
- Pepper (50g), Cheese (750g), Pumpkin (200g) → 50 + 750 + 200 = 1000g ✔
👉 Circle those three items.
---
🔹 Section 3: "Draw the grocery items below on the scale"
You're given a balance scale from 0g to 500g. You need to draw where each item should go based on its weight:
- Bread: 700g → but scale only goes to 500g → so it’s too heavy for this scale
- Canned food: 300g → place at 300g mark
- Flower: 400g → place at 400g mark
👉 Draw lines or marks at 300g and 400g. Note that 700g is outside the scale range.
---
🔹 Section 4: "Circle the heaviest item in each group"
Compare the items in each row and pick the one that is likely the heaviest:
1. Teddy bear, soccer ball, bowling ball, camera
→ Bowling ball is typically heaviest
2. Shoe, turkey, taco, loaf of bread
→ Turkey is heaviest
3. Worm, butterfly, ladybug, frog
→ Frog is heaviest
👉 Circle the heaviest in each row.
---
🔹 Section 5: "Number the following items from lightest (1) to heaviest (5)"
List of items with weights:
- Basket of apples: 2kg = 2000g
- Hamburger: 75g
- Milk carton: 1000g
- Cookie: 30g
- Jar of popcorn: 1.5kg = 1500g
Convert all to grams:
- Cookie: 30g → 1st (lightest)
- Hamburger: 75g → 2nd
- Milk: 1000g → 3rd
- Popcorn: 1500g → 4th
- Apples: 2000g → 5th (heaviest)
👉 Number them accordingly.
---
🔹 Section 6: "Draw the correct scale weights to balance the scales"
Each scale shows an object on one side and empty pans on the other. You must add standard weights (like 1kg, 500g, 250g, 100g, etc.) to balance.
Examples:
- Object weighs 2.5kg → Use: 2kg + 500g
- Object weighs 800g → Use: 500g + 250g + 50g? Or 500g + 200g + 100g → depends on available weights.
- Object weighs 1.3kg → Use: 1kg + 250g + 50g = 1300g
- Object weighs 75g → Use: 50g + 20g + 5g → but if only standard weights are allowed, maybe 50g + 20g + 5g?
👉 Use common metric weights: 1kg, 500g, 250g, 100g, 50g, 20g, 10g, 5g, etc.
Draw the appropriate combination on the right side of each scale.
