This math topic focuses on practicing conversion between different metric mass units with the inclusion of decimal values. Specifically, it covers converting milligrams (mg), centigrams (cg), and grams (g) into each other. The problems are presented through multiple-choice questions where students must choose the correct conversion value, reinforcing understanding of the metric system and decimal operations in the context of mass measurement. Each problem is structured to build competency in navigating between smaller and larger units effectively, essential for real-world application in science and everyday measurements.
