Terrell needs the total weight of his backpack, water jug, and sleeping bag to be less than 11 kilograms (kg). His backpack weighs 9,300 grams (g), his water jug is 0.45 kg, and his sleeping bag is 25,000 milligrams (mg). Dominic says that the total weight is 34.75 kg. He shows Terrell his math. Backpack: 9,300 ÷ 1,000 = 9.3 kg

Water Jug: 0.45 kg

Sleeping Bag: 25,000 ÷ 1,000 = 25.00 kg

Total:
9.3kg
0.45kg
+25.00kg
34.75kg
