A conversion factor table sounds useful. A rule could be that the conversion
factors use multiplication. (Remember that division is multiplication with a
smaller factor: something / 10 = something * .1)

From, To, Factor
KG, TK, .01
TK, KG, 100
KG, G, 1000
G, KG, .001

Now you look up the conversion factor:
select factor * weight as new_weight
from conversionfactors
where from = 'KG' and to = 'TK'

You could extend this to a user-defined function that accepts the from and
to conversion, and it would output the result.
