\( 0.96 kg = \square g \)

To convert kilograms to grams, simply multiply the number of kilograms by 1,000 since there are 1,000 grams in a kilogram. So, \( 0.96 \text{ kg} \times 1,000 = 960 \text{ g} \). Voilà! Now, here's a fun fact: the metric system, which includes grams and kilograms, was first adopted in France during the French Revolution! It's a system based entirely on powers of ten, making calculations smoother and more straightforward.
