To convert 28.5 grams into kilograms we have to multiply 28.5 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

28.5 g → M_(kg)

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

M_(kg) = 28.5 g × 0.001 kg

M_(kg) = 0.0285 kg

The final result is:

28.5 g → 0.0285 kg

We conclude that 28.5 grams is equivalent to 0.0285 kilograms:
