What is 1000 grams equivalent to in kilograms?

0.5 kg
1 kg
1.5 kg
2 kg

The correct answer is: 1 kg

To determine the equivalent of 1000 grams in kilograms, it's essential to understand the metric system, specifically the relationship between grams and kilograms. In the metric system, 1 kilogram is defined as 1000 grams. Therefore, when you start with 1000 grams and convert it into kilograms, you divide by 1000. So, 1000 grams divided by 1000 equals 1 kilogram. This direct conversion confirms that 1000 grams is precisely equal to 1 kg. Thus, the correct answer is indeed 1 kg. This understanding of the metric conversion is fundamental for anyone working in fields involving measurements, such as science, nutrition, and other disciplines that require precise weight measurement.
