Answer 1

Answer:

12,579,000

Explanation:

Kilogram (kg) and centigram (cg) are units of mass. It is important to know the value of each when converting from one to the other and vice-versa.

Take note that: 1 kg is equivalent to 100,000 cg

Conversion may be done through the direct proportion method.

Let x be the number of what we're looking for.

Step 1: $\frac{1 kg}{10,000 cg}$ multiplied by $\frac{125.79 kg}{x}$ = ?

Step 2: Then, we may cross multiply

            $\frac{1 kg (x)}{100,000 cg (125.79 kg)}$ = ?

Step 3: $\frac{x}{12,579,000 cg}$ = ?

Step 4: Therefore, x is equivalent to 12,579,000 cg
