How do you convert kilograms (kg) to stones?
The Conversion Formula
To convert kilograms to stones, divide the number of kilograms by 6.35029:
Formula: Stones = Kilograms ÷ 6.35029
Step-by-Step Process
- Take your weight in kilograms
- Divide by 6.35029
- The result is your weight in stones
Examples
- 63.5 kg to st:
63.5 kg ÷ 6.35029 = 10.0 st - 31.75 kg to st:
31.75 kg ÷ 6.35029 = 5.0 st - 50.8 kg to st:
50.8 kg ÷ 6.35029 = 8.0 st - 76.2 kg to st:
76.2 kg ÷ 6.35029 = 12.0 st - 95.25 kg to st:
95.25 kg ÷ 6.35029 = 15.0 st
Quick Reference
- 1 kg = 0.157473 st
- 1 st = 6.35029 kg
Why This Conversion Works
The conversion factor 6.35029 is the exact number of kilograms in one stone. To convert from kilograms to stones, we divide by this factor. Since one stone equals 14 pounds, and one pound equals approximately 0.453592 kilograms, one stone equals 14 × 0.453592 = 6.35029 kilograms.
Tips for Mental Math
For quick calculations, you can use 6.35 as an approximation:
63.5 kg ≈ 10 st (63.5 ÷ 6.35)
31.75 kg ≈ 5 st (31.75 ÷ 6.35)
This simple division makes converting kilograms to stones straightforward for everyday use.
