How many milligrams are in 34 grams?

  1. 34,000 milligrams

  2. 3,400 milligrams

  3. 340 milligrams

  4. 34 milligrams

The correct answer is: 34,000 milligrams

To convert grams to milligrams, you need to know that 1 gram is equivalent to 1,000 milligrams. Therefore, to find out how many milligrams are in 34 grams, you multiply the grams by the conversion factor: 34 grams x 1,000 milligrams/gram = 34,000 milligrams. This calculation clearly shows that 34 grams is equal to 34,000 milligrams, making the correct answer accurate. The other answers represent incorrect conversions based on the gram to milligram relationship.
