Let me give you an example.

1 apple has a mass of 50 g
2 apples will have a mass of 100 g
3 apples will have a mass of 150 g
4 apples will have a mass of 200 g
5 apples will have a mass of 250 g

100 apples? They will have a mass of 100 x 10 = 1000 g

2000 apples? They will have a mass of 2000 x 10 = 20 000 g

Can you try out with your problem now?
