The correct answer is: All of the answer choices are correct.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Explanation:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

To determine the correct conversions from milligrams (mg)<\/strong> to various metric units, we need to understand the metric prefixes<\/strong> and how they relate:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prefix<\/th>Symbol<\/th>Value in grams<\/th><\/tr><\/thead>
milli-<\/td>mg<\/td>1 mg = 0.001 g<\/td><\/tr>
centi-<\/td>cg<\/td>1 cg = 0.01 g<\/td><\/tr>
deci-<\/td>dg<\/td>1 dg = 0.1 g<\/td><\/tr>
gram<\/td>g<\/td>1 g<\/td><\/tr>
hecto-<\/td>hg<\/td>1 hg = 100 g<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Let\u2019s convert 47.0 milligrams<\/strong> step by step:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. To grams<\/strong>: 47.0\u2009mg=47.0\u00d710\u22123\u2009g=0.047\u2009g47.0 \\, \\text{mg} = 47.0 \\times 10^{-3} \\, \\text{g} = 0.047 \\, \\text{g}<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. To centigrams (cg)<\/strong>: 1\u2009cg=10\u2009mg\u21d247.0\u2009mg=47.010=4.7\u2009cg1 \\, \\text{cg} = 10 \\, \\text{mg} \\Rightarrow 47.0 \\, \\text{mg} = \\frac{47.0}{10} = 4.7 \\, \\text{cg}<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. To decigrams (dg)<\/strong>: 1\u2009dg=100\u2009mg\u21d247.0\u2009mg=47.0100=0.47\u2009dg1 \\, \\text{dg} = 100 \\, \\text{mg} \\Rightarrow 47.0 \\, \\text{mg} = \\frac{47.0}{100} = 0.47 \\, \\text{dg}<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. To hectograms (hg)<\/strong>: 1\u2009hg=100,000\u2009mg\u21d247.0\u2009mg=47.0100,000=0.00047\u2009hg1 \\, \\text{hg} = 100,000 \\, \\text{mg} \\Rightarrow 47.0 \\, \\text{mg} = \\frac{47.0}{100,000} = 0.00047 \\, \\text{hg}<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    All the conversions listed in the answer choices are mathematically correct:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    • \u2705 4.7 centigrams<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • \u2705 0.00047 hectograms<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • \u2705 0.47 decigrams<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • \u2705 0.047 grams<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      Thus, the correct option is: All of the answer choices are correct.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

      This demonstrates the consistent relationships in the metric system, which is based on powers of 10, making unit conversion straightforward and reliable.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
