N = mg

N is weight, in kg-m/s^2 (abbreviated as Newtons (N))

m is mass, in kilograms (kg)

g is accelleration due to gravity, in m/s^2.

Looking at the expression algebraically, you can see that multiplying m by g yields N. So you multiply mass (kg) by 9.8 m/s^2 to get kg-m/s^2, or weight in Newtons.
