Let's solve this step-by-step. The worksheet asks us to convert between
pounds (lb) and
kilograms (kg) using the conversion factor:
>
1 pound = 0.45 kilograms
> So,
1 kg = 1 / 0.45 ≈ 2.222 pounds
We'll use this to fill in all the blanks, rounding answers to the
nearest hundredth (i.e., two decimal places).

Part 1: Pounds to Kilograms
Multiply each pound value by
0.45
1.
3 pounds = 3 × 0.45 =
1.35 kg
2.
0.3 pounds = 0.3 × 0.45 =
0.135 → 0.14 kg (rounded)
3.
16 pounds = 16 × 0.45 =
7.20 kg
4.
1.2 pounds = 1.2 × 0.45 =
0.54 kg
5.
11 pounds = 11 × 0.45 =
4.95 kg
6.
1.41 pounds = 1.41 × 0.45 =
0.6345 → 0.63 kg (rounded)
7.
0.5 pounds = 0.5 × 0.45 =
0.225 → 0.23 kg (rounded)
8.
29 pounds = 29 × 0.45 =
13.05 kg
9.
1.8 pounds = 1.8 × 0.45 =
0.81 kg
10.
0.02 pounds = 0.02 × 0.45 =
0.009 → 0.01 kg (rounded)
11.
0.1 pounds = 0.1 × 0.45 =
0.045 → 0.05 kg (rounded)
12.
2.06 pounds = 2.06 × 0.45 =
0.927 → 0.93 kg (rounded)

Part 2: Kilograms to Pounds
Use:
1 kg = 2.222 pounds, so multiply kg by 2.222
1.
30 kg = 30 × 2.222 =
66.66 pounds
2.
1.5 kg = 1.5 × 2.222 =
3.333 → 3.33 pounds (rounded)
3.
200 kg = 200 × 2.222 =
444.40 pounds
4.
10.8 kg = 10.8 × 2.222 =
23.9776 → 23.98 pounds (rounded)
5.
400 kg = 400 × 2.222 =
888.80 pounds
6.
70 kg = 70 × 2.222 =
155.54 pounds
7.
250 kg = 250 × 2.222 =
555.50 pounds
8.
12.3 kg = 12.3 × 2.222 =
27.3106 → 27.31 pounds (rounded)
9.
120 kg = 120 × 2.222 =
266.64 pounds
10.
25 kg = 25 × 2.222 =
55.55 pounds
11.
390 kg = 390 × 2.222 =
866.58 pounds
12.
150 kg = 150 × 2.222 =
333.30 pounds

🔍 Notes:
- All values are rounded to the
nearest hundredth as instructed.
- The conversion factor used is
1 lb = 0.45 kg, which is an approximation (actual value is ~0.45359237 kg). But since the problem specifies this value, we stick with it.
