To convert 4.7 grams into kilograms we have to multiply 4.7 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

4.7 g → M_(kg)

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

M_(kg) = 4.7 g × 0.001 kg

M_(kg) = 0.0047 kg

The final result is:

4.7 g → 0.0047 kg

We conclude that 4.7 grams is equivalent to 0.0047 kilograms:

4.7 grams = 0.0047 kilograms
