When converting gram to kilogram (smaller unit to larger unit), you must divide by 10. This means that you must move each unit to the left. For example:

Kilo, hectogram, decagram, gram... you must move 3 steps to the left which means 5500 grams is equal to 5.5 Kilograms

5.5, divide 5,500 by 1,000 to get 5.5 kg.
