gram into Kilogram
Knowledge Desk

To convert grams into kilograms, we We use different standards of measuring weights.
divide the number of grams by 1000. Metric system Indian system
11 g 664 mg (approx.) 1 tola
Example 2: Convert 8000 g into kg. 933 g 10 mg (approx.) 1 ser (80 tola)
37 kg 324 g (approx.) 1 maund or mann (40 ser)
Solution: 8000 g = (8000 ÷ 1000) kg

= 8 kg 1000 8000 8 kg Math Insight
8000 250 g = kg,

Thus, 8000 g = 8 kg. 0 g 4

500 g = kg,

1000 g = 1 kg
Kilogram and gram into gram

To convert kilograms and grams into grams, we multiply the number Be Aware

of kilograms by 1000 and add the product to the number of grams. 1 kg = 1000 g
1 g = 1000 mg.
Example 3: Convert the following into g.

(a) 3 kg 120 g (b) 9 kg 378 g
Solution:

(a) 3 kg 120 g = (3 × 1000 ) g + 120 g (b) 9 kg 378 g = (9 × 1000 ) g + 378 g

= 3000 g + 120 g = 9000 g + 378 g
= 3120 g = 9378 g

Conversion of gram into Kilogram and gram

To convert grams into kilograms and grams, we divide the number of grams by 1000.
Here, we get the quotient (in kg) and remainder (in g).

Example 4: Convert 2134 g into kg and g.
1000 2134 2 kg
Solution: 2134 g = (2134 ÷ 1000) kg 2000

= 2 kg 134 g 134 g

Or

2134 g = 2000 g + 134 g = 2 kg + 134 g = 2 kg 134 g
Thus, 2134 g = 2 kg 134 g.

Alternative: To convert g into kg, just write the last 3 digits as g and the remaining digits

as kg. As, 2134 g = 2 kg 134 g
