Kilogram and dg, which is shortened version of decigrams, are both units of mass. If we are to express these units to a common unit, gram, we have the conversion factors shown below.

1 kilogram = 1000 g
1 decigram = 0.1 g

We use dimensional analysis along with the derived conversion factors to answer this item,

(1926532 dg) x (0.1 g / 1 dg) x (1 kg / 1000 g)
= 192.6532 kg

Thus, the mass of the thing is approximately equal to 192.65 kg.
