Given:
\[ x = 10 \, \text{g} \]
\[ y = 10 \, \text{kg} \]

Calculate \( y + x \).

Options:
A. 10.1 kg
B. 100.1 g
C. 10.1 kg
D. 10.01 g​

Answer :

The correct option is d)10.01 kg​; y + x = 10.01 kg.

What is referred as the unit conversion?

When converting units, you are generally given one measure but instead asked to convert it to another.

  • For example, you may be given a volume in "gallons" but also asked to convert it to "fluid ounces."
  • They will have given you (or you will be able to quickly find) the conversion units which are appropriate for the task.
  • In order to complete the conversion, you will be required to multiply or divide by one of the following unit equivalences.

For the given values in the question;

x = 10 g and y = 10 kg

As, both the values are of mass.

For adding both values, the unit must be same.

So, convert the value of x in kg from g.

1 kg = 1000 g

Thus, 1 g = 1/1000 kg

10 g = 10/1000 kg

10 g = 0.01 kg

Now add both;

x + y = 0.01 + 10

x + y = 10.01 kg

Thus, the value of x + y is found as 10.01 kg.
