There's a thousand grams in a kilogram, so if there's a thousand milligrams in a gram, then there should be a million milligrams in a kilogram.

milli- means one one-thousandth of (the base unit)
kilo- means one thousand times (the base unit)
Therefore, a kilogram is 1000 times the milligram and a milligram is 1000th of a kilogram.
So, there's 1000 milligrams in a kilogram
1000 milligram = 1 kilogram

gram
kilo... = 1000 times
So there are 1000 x 1000 milligrams in a kilogram or 1,000,000

One kilogram is equivalent to 1,000 grams or 2.2 pounds; the mass of a liter of water.
A milligram is a unit of mass equal to one-thousandth of a gram.
So the answer is indeed 1,000,000

1 million or 1,000,000 or 10 to the power 6 milligrammes in a kilogramme.
Milli is the prefix for 1 thousandth, while kilo is the prefix for 1 thousand: gramme being the unit of weight.

1 kg = 1000g
1g = 1000 mg
therefore, 1kg = (1000x1000)mg
=1,000,000mg
