Convert Kilograms to Metric ton (tonne)

Kilograms → Metric ton (tonne)
kg × 0.001 = t t × 1000 = kg

To convert kilograms (kg) to metric ton (tonne) (t), multiply the kilograms value by 0.001. 1 kg = 0.001 t, and 1 t = 1000 kg. The conversion is a linear scaling with no offset, so the same factor applies to any value.

Going the other way? Convert t to kg.
