Guida verificata passo dopo passo1
Understand the units involved: a calorie (cal) is a unit of energy, and a kilocalorie (kcal) is also a unit of energy but represents a larger amount.
Recall the prefix 'kilo-' in the metric system means 1000 times the base unit.
Therefore, 1 kilocalorie (kcal) is equal to 1000 calories (cal).
Express this relationship mathematically as: \(1\ \text{kcal} = 1000\ \text{cal}\).
Use this conversion factor to convert between kilocalories and calories whenever needed.
