m stands for "mil".

"mil" is the Latin root for 1000 (think "millennium"). However, in math, physics, and science, it stands for 1000th (0.001), not 1000, which is kilo (as in kilometer for 1000 meters)

Ok, so m stands for mil which means 1000th. Therefore, a mg is 1000th of a gram:

1 mg = (1/1000) g

1000 mg = 1 g (multiply through)

7500 mg = 7.5 g (multiply by 7.5)

Eventually it should be automatic: 1000 mg = 1 gram so 7500 mg = 7.5 grams.

Well it has to be a number that comes after 2 & is right before 3. The closest whole number to that is 3. So it's 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. Good Luck all the other math puzzels
