In the metric system (really called SI) weight is measured in units of newtons (lower case n to emphasize we are not talking about the scientist) and mass is in units of kilograms.
W = mg (g =9.8) so weight in newtons equals mass in kilograms times 9.8.

To convert from grams to kilograms, divide by 1000. Please note that grams and kilograms are not really units of weight. They are units of mass.
You can't convert that. You can only convert units that measure the same type of thing - for example, units of length to units of length, units of mass to units of mass, units of time to units of time, etc.
If you know the net weight in pounds, multiply that by 0.454 to convert to kilograms. (Note: Technically a kilogram is not a weight, but a mass.)
You can't.You are trying to convert measurements of two different aspects of things:grams (g - in this case prefixed by kilo- to make kg) are a measure of mass (roughly how heavy something is); whereaslinear feet are a measure of length (how long something is).
multiply by 9.8
