How many kilograms are in 500 grams?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1/2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1000 grams = 1 kilogram, so \[500 grams \times 1 kilogram/1000 grams = .5 or 1/2\]

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

1 kilogram = 1000 grams Note: kilo is the prefix which means one thousand so if you divide both sides by 2 (since we want to go from 1000 to 500 g), we get 1/2 kilogram = 500 grams

OpenStudy (anonymous):

your answer is kilograms because gram units will cancel out (gram divided by gram =1), and you are left with kilograms. answer is 0.5 kilograms
