Converting the other way: carats to milligrams

milligrams = carats × 200. So 50 carats is back to 10,000 milligrams; one carat is 200 milligrams. See the carats to milligrams table.

Quick estimate in your head

For a rough answer, multiply by about 0.005: 10,000 × 0.005 ≈ 50 ct, against the exact 50 ct (0.0% out). Good enough to check that a calculated result is sensible.

Common mistakes

The usual slip is using the factor the wrong way round. A milligram is smaller than a carat, so the number of carats must come out smaller than the number of milligrams. If your answer goes the other way, divide instead of multiplying.
