How to Convert Stones to Grams for Weight Measurements
When working with weight data, there is often the need to switch between the British imperial units of stones and the metric grams. While stones are still commonly used for body weight in some regions, science, and medicine have adopted the standard gram measure. This guide provides the key details for converting stone values to grams.
Understanding Stones and Grams
A stone is a traditional unit equalling 14 pounds. A gram is a metric unit equal to 0.00220 pounds.
Some key reference weights:
| 1 stone | = 6.35 kg |
|---|---|
| 1 kg | = 1,000 grams |
| 10 stone | = 63,500 grams |
So stones represent more weight than grams. About 6,350 grams make up one stone.
Calculating the Weight Conversion
To transition between stones and grams, you multiply based on the following ratio:
Grams = Stones x 6,350
The calculations simply scale up or down from the defined relationship.
For example:
|8 stone| = 50,800 grams| |100,000 grams | = 15.75 stone|
As shown, more stones gives more grams.
