Quick estimate in your head

For a rough answer, multiply by about 5000: 150 × 5000 ≈ 750,000 ct, against the exact 750,000 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 kilogram is bigger than a carat, so the number of carats must come out larger than the number of kilograms. If your answer goes the other way, divide instead of multiplying.
