Grams to Milligrams conversion

How to convert grams to milligrams?

To convert grams (g) to milligrams (mg), you need to know that 1 gram is equal to 1,000 milligrams. The conversion is straightforward:

$\text{Number of milligrams} = \text{Number of grams} \times 1,000$

So, to convert 1 gram to milligrams:

$1 \text{ g} \times 1,000 = 1,000 \text{ mg}$

Therefore, 1 gram is equal to 1,000 milligrams.
