What to Focus On
- Weight measures how heavy something is.
- Kilograms are used for heavier objects.
- Grams are used for lighter objects.
- 1 kg = 1000 g.
- To convert kg and g into grams, change kg into g first.
- To convert grams into kg and g, split the number into groups of 1000.
- Convert both quantities to the same unit before comparing.
- Use >, <, and = to compare weights.
- A mixed unit such as 1 kg 600 g can be changed into grams for easy comparison.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
Heavy things can be measured in grams because grams are a weight unit.
Kilograms and grams can be added by joining the numbers directly without converting or carrying.
Any number of grams can be changed into kilograms by simply removing the last three digits without thinking about the remaining grams.
Memory Tips
Kilogram to gram conversion
Gram to milligram conversion
Litre to millilitre conversion
Adding litres and millilitres
