Grams to Kilograms Converter (g to kg)

To convert grams to kilograms, divide by 1,000. Food labels, postage rates and shipping documents often mix the two, so the same mass appears as 500 g or 0.5 kg.

1 g = 0.001 kg

Calculation working

  1. Result = input × source factor ÷ target factor
  2. 1 × 0.001 ÷ 1 = 0.001 kg
  3. Factors refer to the same base quantity. Rounding is applied to the display, not intermediate calculations.

Display: 10 significant digits. More digits do not make the original measurement more accurate.

Using this weight converter

Convert mass for material schedules, parcel labels, ingredient quantities and equipment datasheets.

Kilogram, pound and ounce here measure mass. The category's familiar name is Weight; it does not calculate gravitational force in newtons.

Check before using the result

  • Ton means metric tonne: 1,000 kg. It is different from a US short ton or an Imperial long ton.
  • Mass does not determine material volume without density. A kilogram of sand and a kilogram of water occupy different volumes.

Definitions and method: NIST: unit conversion factors and rounding. Calculations use double-precision arithmetic; the display precision can be adjusted above.
