  1. Metric conversion • 1 kilogram (kg) = 1000 grams (g) • 1 gram (g) = 1000 milligrams (mg) • 1 milligram (mg) = 1000 micrograms (mcg) • 1 litre (L) = 1000millilitres (ml) Ref: Gatford & Phillips (2002)

  2. Kg to g Example: • Change 0.6kg to grams • How many grams in a kg? • 1kg = 1000grams • 0.6kg x 1000 = 600g Ref: Gatford & Phillips (2002)

  3. G to kg • Change 375g to kilograms • How many grams = kilogram? • 1000grams = 1kg • 375g ÷ 1000 = 0.375kg Ref: Gatford & Phillips (2002)

  4. G to mg • Change 0.67g to milligrams • How many milligrams in a gram? • 1 gram = 1000mg • 0.67 x 1000 = 670mg Ref: Gatford & Phillips (2002)

  5. Mg to G • Change 23mg to grams • how many mg in a gram? • 1000mg = 1 gram • 23 ÷ 1000 = 0.023g Ref: Gatford & Phillips (2002)

  6. Mg to mcg • Change 0.075 mg to micrograms • How many micrograms in mg? • 1mg = 1000mcg • 0.075mg x 1000 = 75 mcg Ref: Gatford & Phillips (2002)

  7. Mcg to mg • Change 185 mcg to milligrams • how many mcg in a milligram? • 1000mcg = 1 mg • 185mcg ÷ 1000 = 0.185mg Ref: Gatford & Phillips (2002)

  8. L to ml • Change 1.3L to millilitres • How many ml in 1 Litre ? • 1L = 1000ml • 1.3L = 1300ml Ref: Gatford & Phillips (2002)

  9. Ml to L • Change 850ml to litres • How many ml in a litre? • 1000ml = 1L • 850 ÷ 1000 = 0.85L. Ref: Gatford & Phillips (2002)
