Kilograms and ounces, side by side

One kilogram is 35.27 oz. In the other direction, one ounce is 0.02835 kg.

The factor is exact rather than rounded: imperial and US units have been defined from the metric ones since 1959, so the conversion introduces no error of its own. What you see below is arithmetic, not an approximation.

The kilogram is the base unit of mass in the International System. Since 2019 it has been defined through the Planck constant, replacing the platinum-iridium cylinder kept near Paris that had been the standard since 1889. A liter of water has a mass of about one kilogram.

The ounce here is the avoirdupois ounce, one sixteenth of a pound and exactly 28.349523125 grams. It measures food portions in the United States. Precious metals use a different unit, the troy ounce of about 31.1 grams, which is the one quoted in the price of gold.
