![### Conversion Exercise
**Question 38.b of 40:**
**Task**: Convert each of the following measurements or final calculations into grams.
**Value**: 4473000 ng
#### Detailed Explanation:
The task is to convert nanograms (ng) to grams (g). To do this, you need to understand that 1 gram is equal to 1,000,000,000 nanograms.
Using this conversion factor:
\[ \text{grams} = \frac{\text{nanograms}}{1,000,000,000} \]
Let’s convert the provided value:
\[ 4473000 \, \text{ng} = \frac{4473000}{1,000,000,000} \, \text{g} \]
Perform the division:
\[ 4473000 \div 1,000,000,000 = 0.004473 \, \text{g} \]
**Answer**: 0.004473 grams
#### Calculator Interface
The image shows a numerical keypad with additional functional buttons for calculations. The important elements are:
1. **Numerical Keypad**: For entering numbers 0-9.
2. **Function Buttons**:
- **c**: Presumably for clearing the input.
- **x10^**: For entering values in scientific notation.
- **Decimal Point**: For entering decimal numbers.
- **+/−**: For changing the sign of a number (positive or negative).
The calculator interface indicates that this exercise can be performed using a basic calculator by entering the values and dividing accordingly. It serves to facilitate the conversion of nanograms to grams.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2Fc25e6886-23a3-4870-9519-3bb0f78f33bc%2F6d333978-d873-4c33-86f8-7d891c0232f0%2Fdoq63ph_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
