how many grams in kilograms
1 kilogram = 1,000 grams. A dictionary has a mass of about one kilogram. Kilograms are great for measuring things that can be lifted by people (sometimes very strong people are needed of course!). Kilograms are often written as kg (that is a k for kilo and a g for gram), so 10 kg means 10 kilograms. Scales measure our weight using kilograms. An adult weighs about 70 kg.
