Whether you're a chef, a scientist, or anyone who works with small measurements, knowing how to convert grams to other units of mass is essential. This guide will provide you with everything you need to know about grams and how to convert them to milligrams (mg), kilograms (kg), and more.
Grams (g) are a metric unit of mass. They are the base unit of mass in the International System of Units (SI). One gram is equal to one thousandth of a kilogram. Grams are used to measure the mass of small objects, such as food, medicine, and chemicals.
Milligrams (mg) are a smaller unit of mass than grams. One milligram is equal to one thousandth of a gram. To convert grams to milligrams, multiply the number of grams by 1000.
For example:
Kilograms (kg) are a larger unit of mass than grams. One kilogram is equal to 1000 grams. To convert grams to kilograms, divide the number of grams by 1000.
For example:
In addition to milligrams and kilograms, grams can also be converted to other units of mass, such as ounces (oz), pounds (lb), and tons (t). The following table provides conversion factors for these units:
Unit | Conversion Factor |
---|---|
Milligrams (mg) | 1000mg = 1g |
Kilograms (kg) | 1000g = 1kg |
Ounces (oz) | 28.35g = 1oz |
Pounds (lb) | 453.6g = 1lb |
Tons (t) | 1000kg = 1t |
