Note for Parents & Teachers
This follows the NCERT Class 5 chapter "Weight and Capacity". 1 kg = 1,000 g, 1 g = 1,000 mg, 100 kg = 1 quintal and 1,000 kg = 1 tonne. 5 kg 50 g is 5,050 g, not 5,500 g. Change both quantities to the smaller unit before comparing. Football fact used: a size 5 match ball weighs between 410 g and 450 g.
