Learn the math: Compose Masses in Grams and Kilograms

Mass can be composed from smaller labeled amounts. Convert kilograms and grams to a common unit before adding or subtracting.

A worked example

A target of 2 kilograms is 2,000 grams. If 750 grams are already loaded, another 1,250 grams are needed.

Keep in mind while you play

Remember that 1 kilogram equals 1,000 grams before comparing cargo labels.
