The Definition of Kilogram

The kilogram is defined as equivalence to the mass of the international prototype of the kilogram (IPK), administered by the International Bureau of Weights and Measures.

The Definition of Gram

The unit for mass gram is defined as 1÷1000 kilogram.

Abbreviations for unit symbols: kg for kilogram and g for gram.

How many Grams in a Kilogram?

The gram is defined as one thousandths of a kilogram.

Thus, the kg to g formula is [g] = [kg] × 1000, and we can answer the question as follows:

1 kg = 103 g

From the definition and formula follows that the kilograms in grams ratio is 1000:1.

In other words, the conversion factor for the units of mass is one thousand.

In British English, the units are expressed as kilogrammes and grammes.

Yet, on our website we stick with the international spelling except for rare illustration purposes.

How to Convert Kilograms to Grams?

To change the mass we employ the formula given in the preceding paragraph, and multiply the mass in grams by 1000.

For example, if you change 1.75 grams you will obtain 1,750 grams.

You may also transform kg to grams by moving the decimal point of the mass in kilograms three places to the right:

1.75 → 17.5 → 175 → 1750.

Either method produces the desired result.

However, by far the easiest way for changing kg into g is making use of our mass calculator in the previous section.

Just insert the mass in kg, and our app converts it automatically.

You don’t have to press a button, but you must use a decimal point for fractions.
