Conversion formula

The conversion factor from grams to kilograms is 0.001, which means that 1 gram is equal to 0.001 kilograms:

1 g = 0.001 kg

To convert 1009 grams into kilograms we have to multiply 1009 by the conversion factor in order to get the mass amount from grams to kilograms. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 g → 0.001 kg

1009 g → M_(kg)

Solve the above proportion to obtain the mass M in kilograms:

M_(kg) = 1009 g × 0.001 kg

M_(kg) = 1.009 kg

The final result is:

1009 g → 1.009 kg

We conclude that 1009 grams is equivalent to 1.009 kilograms:

1009 grams = 1.009 kilograms
