Measure weight and capacity with confidence — converting between kilograms and grams, litres and millilitres.
Weight is measured in kilograms (kg) for heavier things and grams (g) for lighter things. 1 kilogram equals 1000 grams.
How many grams are in 1 kg?
1000 grams
Convert 2.5 kg to grams.
2.5 × 1000 = 2500 grams
Capacity — how much liquid something can hold — is measured in litres (L) for larger amounts and millilitres (mL) for smaller amounts. 1 litre equals 1000 millilitres.
How many millilitres are in 1 litre?
1000 millilitres
Which holds more: 750 mL or 1 L?
1 L, since 1 L = 1000 mL, which is more than 750 mL
1. Convert 3 kg to grams.
2. Convert 4500 grams to kg.
3. Convert 2 litres to millilitres.
4. Which is heavier: 900 g or 1 kg?
5. A bottle holds 1.5 litres of water. How many millilitres is that?
From The Fish Tale to How Big? How Heavy? — the whole journey is done. You're now a true Maths explorer!
