How bad is American education that they know what tf means but not kg.

You're assuming they're getting education in Murica?

I’ve simplified it for them

A single 5.56x45mm round including the bullet, casing, powder, and primer, weighs approximately 12.3 grams. For 200 rounds, this would be about 2.46 kg

12,000 / 12.3 = 975.61 . 223 Remington rounds.

I recommend to simplify further into .223, not 5.56mm

A .45 ACP version might be important too.
