How to Convert Kilograms to Grams
Example: How many grams are equivalent to 27.28 kilograms?
As;
1 kilograms = 1000 grams
27.28 kilograms = Y grams
Assuming Y is the answer, and by criss-cross principle;
Y equals 27.28 times 1000 over 1
(i.e.) Y = 27.28 * 1000 / 1 = 27280 grams
Answer is: 27280 grams are equivalent to 27.28 kilograms.
