When we look at weights in gardening, you might hear people use different measurements. Sometimes they use grams (g) and other times they use ounces (oz). Knowing how to change one measurement to another can help us understand how much we are dealing with, especially when we are planting seeds, measuring soil, or mixing fertilizers.
So, what does 900 grams convert to in ounces? Here’s how we can figure it out:
We can use the fact that 1 ounce is equal to about 28.35 grams. If we want to find out how many ounces are in 900 grams, we can set up an equation like this:
$$
\text{Ounces} = \frac{\text{Grams}}{28.35}
$$
Plugging in our numbers, we have:
$$
\text{Ounces} = \frac{900}{28.35} \approx 31.75
$$
This means that 900 grams is about 31.75 ounces. Understanding this is super helpful, especially if you’re using seed packets or measuring out soil!
Here are 7 objects that weigh exactly 900 grams:
- A large bag of potting soil.
- An average-sized watermelon.
- A medium-sized pumpkin.
- A box of garden mulch.
- A small bag of flower seeds (about 10,000 seeds).
- A jar of honey (about 900 ml, since honey is very dense).
- A large bag of sugar (often sold in that weight).
Now you can feel confident when gardening and measuring things in both grams and ounces! 🌱
