25 POINTS Examine the following solution to a conversion problem. Do you see a mistake? If so, identify the location of the first mistake and explain why it is incorrect.

Original Problem: Convert 3.25 kg to mg

(1) 3.25 kg
(2) 1 kg = 1000 g
(3) 1000 mg = 1g
= (4) 3.25 mg

A) The conversion is not possible.

B) The first problem occurs in column (1). The problem should begin with mg.

C) The first problem occurs in column (2). 1 kg is not equal to 1000 g, so that should not be used as the conversion factor.

D) The first problem occurs in column (2). The conversion factor is upside down (grams should be on top, and kg should be on bottom).

E) The first problem occurs in column (4). The multiplication and division was performed incorrectly.

F) No mistakes.

Thanks a bunch!
