Kilo (símbolo k, minúscula) es un prefijo del Sistema Internacional que indica un factor de 103 (o 1000). Viene del griego χίλιοι (jílioi), que significa ‘mil’. Se utiliza principalmente en combinación con la unidad del metro para formar el kilómetro, una unidad común de longitud y con la unidad de masa para formar el kilogramo.
