Converting the other way: metric tons to kilograms
kilograms = metric tons × 1,000. So 0.07 metric tons is back to 70 kilograms; one metric ton is 1,000 kilograms. See the metric tons to kilograms table.
Quick estimate in your head
For a rough answer, multiply by about 0.001: 70 × 0.001 ≈ 0.07 t, against the exact 0.07 t (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 smaller than a metric ton, so the number of metric tons must come out smaller than the number of kilograms. If your answer goes the other way, divide instead of multiplying.
