Weight (mass) conversions show up in cooking, shipping, fitness, and travel — anywhere recipes, luggage limits, or body weight are quoted in pounds, ounces, kilograms, or grams.

  • One pound is defined as exactly 0.45359237 kg, so the kilogram ↔ pound factor never changes.
  • Strictly, kilograms measure mass and pounds-force measure weight, but in everyday use the two are converted directly.
  • A metric tonne is 1,000 kg; a US (short) ton is about 907 kg and a UK (long) ton about 1,016 kg.
