1 MJ = 1000 kJ
Full precision:1000 kJ
Step-by-Step Solution
To convert 1 megajoules to kilojoules, we multiply by 1000 because one megajoule equals exactly 1000 kilojoules.
1 megajoule = 1000 kilojoules
Since each megajoule contains 1000 kilojoules, we multiply our value by this factor:
1 × 1000 = 1000 kilojoules
So 1 megajoules = 1000 kilojoules.
Quick check: 1000 ÷ 1000 = 1 megajoules
Example Conversions
Example 1: 1 MJ = 1000 kJ
1 × 1000 = 1000
1 × 1000 = 1000
Example 2: 5 MJ = 5000 kJ
5 × 1000 = 5000
5 × 1000 = 5000
Example 3: 10 MJ = 10000 kJ
10 × 1000 = 10000
10 × 1000 = 10000
