How to Convert Milligrams to Kilograms
To convert a measurement in milligrams to a measurement in kilograms, divide the weight by the following conversion ratio: 1,000,000 milligrams/kilogram.
Since one kilogram is equal to 1,000,000 milligrams, you can use this simple formula to convert:
kilograms = milligrams ÷ 1,000,000
The weight in kilograms is equal to the weight in milligrams divided by 1,000,000.
Milligrams and kilograms are both units used to measure weight. Keep reading to learn more about each unit of measure.
What Is a Milligram?
The milligram is a unit of mass equal to 1/1,000 of a gram, or 0.0154 grains.
The milligram, or milligramme, is an SI unit of weight in the metric system. In the metric system, "milli" is the prefix for thousandths, or 10-3. Milligrams can be abbreviated as mg; for example, 1 milligram can be written as 1 mg.

What Is a Kilogram?
One kilogram is equal to 1,000 grams, 2.204623 pounds, or 1/1,000 of a metric ton.
The formal definition of the kilogram changed in 2019. One kilogram was previously equal to the mass of the platinum-iridium bar, known as the International Prototype of the Kilogram, which was stored in Sèvres, France.
The 2019 SI brochure now defines the kilogram using the Planck constant, and it is defined using the meter and second.[1] It is equal to the mass of 1,000 cubic centimeters, or milliliters, of water.
The kilogram, or kilogramme, is the SI base unit for weight and is also a multiple of the gram. In the metric system, "kilo" is the prefix for thousands, or 103. Kilograms can be abbreviated as kg; for example, 1 kilogram can be written as 1 kg.
