Answer

a) $3550$ grams b) $8.944$ meters c) $0.004598$ kg d) $ 18.7 $ mL

Work Step by Step

a) To convert kg to grams, multiply by 1000 because 1 kg = 1000 g. $ 3.55 kg\times\frac{1000 g}{1 kg} = 3550 grams$ b) To convert from mm to m, divide by 1000 because 1m= 1000 mm. $ 8944 mm\times\frac{1 m }{1000 mm} = 8.944 m$ c) To convert from mg to kg, divide by 1000000 because 1kg= 1000000 mg. $ 4598 mg\times\frac{1 kg }{1000000 mg} = 0.004598 kg$ d) To convert from L to mL, multiply by 1000 because 1L= 1000 mL. $ 0.0187 L\times\frac{1000 mL }{1 L} = 18.7 mL$
