How to Convert Ohms to Kilohms
To convert ohms to kilohms, divide the value by 1000.
The Formula
Kilohms = Ohms ÷ 1000
Key Fact
1 kilohm = 1000 ohms
Tip: To convert kilohms back to ohms, multiply by 1000.
Ohms to Kilohms
Convert ohms (Ω) to kilohms (kΩ) with formulas, examples, and conversion tables.

kΩ
1 Ω = 0.001 kΩ
Full precision:0.001 kΩ
Step-by-Step Solution
To convert 1 ohms to kilohms, we divide by 1000 because one kilohm equals exactly 1000 ohms.
1 kilohm = 1000 ohms
Since there are 1000 ohms in every kilohm, we divide our value by this factor:
1 ÷ 1000 = 0.001 kilohms
So 1 ohms = 0.001 kilohms.
Quick check: 0.001 × 1000 = 1 ohms
Example Conversions
Example 1: 1 Ω = 0.001 kΩ
1 ÷ 1000 = 0.001
1 ÷ 1000 = 0.001
Example 2: 5 Ω = 0.005 kΩ
5 ÷ 1000 = 0.005
5 ÷ 1000 = 0.005
Example 3: 10 Ω = 0.01 kΩ
10 ÷ 1000 = 0.01
10 ÷ 1000 = 0.01
