Let's solve the problem step by step.
We are given six objects placed on different weighing scales, and we need to
write down the correct mass with the suitable unit (either
grams (g) or
kilograms (kg)) based on the scale readings.
---
🔹 Understanding the Scales:
There are two types of scales shown:
1.
Scales marked in kg (kilograms):
- These have numbers from 0 to 10, labeled as "kg".
- Each number represents kilograms.
- Example: If the pointer points to 3, the mass is
3 kg.
2.
Scales marked in grams (g):
- These have numbers from 0 to 1000, labeled as "g".
- The scale shows values like 100, 200, ..., up to 1000.
- Example: If the pointer points to 500, the mass is
500 g.

Now let’s go through each object one by one.
---
✔ 1. Stack of Books
- Scale: Marked in
kg.
- Pointer points to
3.
- So, mass =
3 kg
✔ Answer: 3 kg
---
✔ 2. Beach Ball
- Scale: Marked in
grams (g).
- Pointer points to
600.
- So, mass =
600 g
✔ Answer: 600 g
---
✔ 3. Bag of Rice
- Scale: Marked in
kg.
- Pointer points to
10.
- So, mass =
10 kg
✔ Answer: 10 kg
---
✔ 4. Toy Truck
- Scale: Marked in
grams (g).
- Pointer points to
300.
- So, mass =
300 g
✔ Answer: 300 g
---
✔ 5. Mangoes (3 mangoes)
- Scale: Marked in
kg.
- Pointer points to
8.
- So, mass =
8 kg
✔ Answer: 8 kg
> Note: This seems heavy for 3 mangoes — but in this context, it's likely a toy or exaggerated example. We follow the scale reading.
---
✔ 6. Water Bottle
- Scale: Marked in
grams (g).
- Pointer points to
700.
- So, mass =
700 g
✔ Answer: 700 g
