Does 1000mg equal 1kg?

No, 1000mg does not equal 1kg.

Here's why:

  • Milligrams (mg) and kilograms (kg) are units of mass, but they represent different scales.
  • 1 kilogram (kg) is equal to 1000 grams (g).
  • 1 gram (g) is equal to 1000 milligrams (mg).
  • Therefore, 1 kg is equivalent to 1,000,000 mg (1000 g x 1000 mg/g).

In summary: 1000mg is equal to 1 gram, which is a thousandth of a kilogram.
