How it works

A unit converter translates a quantity between measurement systems by applying the conversion factor between the units. Most conversions are a simple multiplication; only a few (like temperature) need a formula because their scales start at different points.

Convert by factor

Target value = source value × conversion factor

Worked example

  • Convert 2 kg to pounds
  • 1 kg = 2.205 lb
  1. 2 × 2.205

2 kg ≈ 4.41 pounds.

Good to know

  • Reverse a conversion with the reciprocal factor.
  • Keep significant figures sensible — a conversion can't add precision the original didn't have.
  • Temperature conversions use formulas (°F = °C × 9/5 + 32), not a single multiplier.
