Problem

Which metric relationship is INCORRECT? 1 milligram $=1,000$ grams $1 \mathrm{dL}=100 \mathrm{~mL}$ $1 \mathrm{~km}=1,000 \mathrm{~m}$ $100 \mathrm{cg}=1 \mathrm{~g}$ 1 liter $=1,000,000$ microliters

Solution

Step 1 :The question is asking which of the given metric relationships is incorrect. To solve this, we need to know the correct metric relationships.

Step 2 :1 milligram (mg) is equal to 0.001 grams (g), not 1,000 grams.

Step 3 :1 deciliter (dL) is indeed equal to 100 milliliters (mL).

Step 4 :1 kilometer (km) is indeed equal to 1,000 meters (m).

Step 5 :100 centigrams (cg) is indeed equal to 1 gram (g).

Step 6 :1 liter (L) is indeed equal to 1,000,000 microliters (µL).

Step 7 :So, the incorrect relationship is '1 milligram = 1,000 grams'.

Step 8 :\(\boxed{\text{The incorrect metric relationship is '1 milligram = 1,000 grams'}}\)
