Megajoule to kilojoules Conversion

1 megajoule (MJ) is equal to 1000 kilojoules (kJ).

1 MJ = 1000 kJ

or

1 kJ = 0.001 MJ

Formula

To convert a energy from megajoule (MJ) to kilojoules (kJ), multiply the energy in megajoule by 1000

e(kJ) = e(MJ) × 1000

Examples:

Convert 500 megajoule to kilojoules:

e(kJ) = 500MJ × 1000 = 500000 kJ
