To convert 503 grams into kilograms we have to multiply 503 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

503 g → M_(kg)

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

M_(kg) = 503 g × 0.001 kg

M_(kg) = 0.503 kg

The final result is:

503 g → 0.503 kg

We conclude that 503 grams is equivalent to 0.503 kilograms:

503 grams = 0.503 kilograms
