Enter a weight, choose the units, and get the answer plus the same value in every other unit. It covers the metric units used here — including the decagram common in Serbian recipes — and the pounds, ounces and stone you meet in foreign recipes, shipping and body-weight figures.

How it works
Every unit is defined by how many grams it equals, so conversions pass through grams as a shared base: your value becomes grams and then the target unit. That keeps everything consistent, and converting kilograms to pounds and back returns the original figure.
The imperial units use exact definitions — one pound is 453.59237 grams and one ounce is one-sixteenth of that (28.349523125 g) — so results are accurate for both cooking and shipping. Strictly these are units of mass; on Earth’s surface people use “weight” and “mass” interchangeably, which is the everyday sense here.
Practical examples
Kilograms to pounds for body weight
A person weighing 80 kg is about 176.37 lb. Enter 80, from kilograms, to pounds — handy for foreign fitness apps that use pounds.
Ounces to grams for a recipe
A recipe asking for 8 oz of flour needs about 226.8 g. Convert ounces to grams to use kitchen scales that read metric.
Decagrams at the deli
Serbian recipes and delis often use decagrams: 25 dag is 250 g, or a quarter kilo. Enter 25 dag and read the gram and kilogram rows.
Frequently asked questions
How many pounds are in a kilogram?
One kilogram is about 2.204623 pounds, and one pound is exactly 0.45359237 kilograms. The tool uses the exact definition, so converting large weights stays accurate.
How do I convert grams to ounces?
Divide grams by 28.349523125, the exact number of grams in an ounce. Enter your value in grams and read the ounce row — useful for adapting recipes written in imperial units.
What is a decagram (dag)?
A decagram is 10 grams, widely used in Serbian and Central European cooking and shopping — “dvadeset deka” means 200 grams. It sits between the gram and the kilogram and is included here because global converters usually omit it.
Is this weight or mass?
Technically these are units of mass; weight is a force. In everyday use on Earth the two are used interchangeably, and that is the sense here — the same convention scales, shops and recipes use.
What is a stone?
A stone (st) is 14 pounds, about 6.35 kg, used mainly in the UK and Ireland for body weight. Someone who says they weigh “12 stone” is about 76.2 kg — the tool converts it directly.
How precise are the conversions?
They use exact unit definitions at full floating-point precision and display up to six decimals with trailing zeros removed. That covers kitchen, postal and everyday needs; specialist scientific work may want more digits.
Does it accept decimals and the Serbian comma?
Yes. Type 1,5 or 1.5 for one and a half kilograms — both are accepted — and pasted values with thousand separators are handled too.
Are the values I enter kept private?
Yes. Everything is computed in your browser; nothing is uploaded and analytics never sees the numbers.
