Definitions

  • The gram is a thousandth of a kilogram, and the unit food packaging and recipes are labelled in.
  • The avoirdupois ounce is a sixteenth of a pound, 28.349 523 125 g. It is the ounce on food packaging, not the one used for gold.
  • This conversion is exact by definition. 1 g = 0.03527396195 oz.
  • Everything here is mass, not force. The pound is defined as exactly 0.453 592 37 kg, so pound-to-kilogram conversion is exact.

How it works

One direction multiplies and the other divides by the same number, so nothing is lost by going back and forth.

The value passes through kg, the unit every other mass & weight unit on the site is defined against, rather than a number written into this page on its own. That is why the figure here, the figure in the table above and the general mass & weight converter always agree.

Display precision limits significant figures rather than decimal places, because one fixed number of decimals is useless across a range this wide. Very large and very small results switch to scientific notation with a proper superscript exponent. The editable box always holds a plain number at full working precision, so you can carry on from either side.

Common questions this answers: how many ounces in a gram (0.035274), how many grams in an ounce (28.3495), and what 500 g is in ounces (17.637 oz).
