Answer:

A. 6 kg.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that James went to the Ashville County Fair. A watermelon that weighed 6,000 grams won a prize for being the largest watermelon at the fair.

To find the weight of watermelon in kilograms we will divide the weight of watermelon by 1000 as 1 kg equals to 1000 grams.

[tex]\text{The weight of watermelon}=\frac{6,000\text{ Grams}}{\frac{1000\text{ Grams}}{\text{kg}}}[/tex]

[tex]\text{The weight of watermelon}=\frac{6,000\text{ Grams}}{1000}\times \frac{\text{ kg}}{\text{Grams}}[/tex]

[tex]\text{The weight of watermelon}=\frac{6,000}{1000}\times \text{ kg}[/tex]

[tex]\text{The weight of watermelon}=6\times \text{ kg}[/tex]

Therefore, the watermelon weigh 6 kilograms and option A is the correct choice.
