How the Conversion Works

This calculator uses a two-step conversion process through kilograms (kg) as the base unit, which is the standard unit of mass in the International System of Units (SI).

Conversion Formula:

Step 1: Convert from g to kilograms (kg)

Value in kg = Input value ÷ 1,000

Step 2: Convert from kilograms (kg) to st

Result = Value in kg × 0.1574730444

Simplified Formula:

Result = Input × 0.000157473
Where 0.000157473 is the conversion factor from g to st

Example Calculation:

Let's convert 16 g to st:

16 g ÷ 1,000 = 0.016 kg
0.016 kg × 0.1574730444 = 0.00252 st

Result: 16 g = 0.00252 st
