Let’s solve each problem step by step. We’ll use these key conversions:
- 1 kg = 2.2 lbs (approximately)
- So, to convert
lbs → kg, divide by 2.2
- To convert
kg → lbs, multiply by 2.2
- Also: 1 lb = 16 oz → so if you have ounces, convert them to pounds first by dividing by 16
- And: 1000 grams = 1 kg → so to convert grams to kg, divide by 1000
- To convert grams to lbs: first convert grams to kg, then kg to lbs (multiply kg by 2.2)
We’ll go one by one.
---
a.) 23 lbs = ? kg
→ 23 ÷ 2.2 = 10.4545... ≈
10.45 kg (rounded to two decimals)
b.) 14 lbs 5 oz = ? kg
First, convert 5 oz to lbs: 5 ÷ 16 = 0.3125 lbs
Total lbs = 14 + 0.3125 = 14.3125 lbs
Now convert to kg: 14.3125 ÷ 2.2 = 6.50568... ≈
6.51 kg
c.) 7 ½ lbs = 7.5 lbs → 7.5 ÷ 2.2 = 3.409... ≈
3.41 kg
d.) 32 lbs → 32 ÷ 2.2 = 14.545... ≈
14.55 kg
e.) 4 lbs 5 oz → 5 oz = 5/16 = 0.3125 lbs → total = 4.3125 lbs
→ 4.3125 ÷ 2.2 = 1.9602... ≈
1.96 kg
f.) 75 lbs → 75 ÷ 2.2 = 34.0909... ≈
34.09 kg
g.) 10 ½ lbs = 10.5 lbs → 10.5 ÷ 2.2 = 4.7727... ≈
4.77 kg
h.) 1000 grams = ? kg → 1000 ÷ 1000 =
1 kg
i.) 44 kg = ? lbs → 44 × 2.2 =
96.8 lbs
j.) 2.2 kg = ? lbs → 2.2 × 2.2 =
4.84 lbs
k.) 28 kg → 28 × 2.2 =
61.6 lbs
l.) 4000 grams = ? lbs
First, 4000 g = 4 kg → 4 × 2.2 =
8.8 lbs
m.) 2000 grams = 2 kg → 2 × 2.2 =
4.4 lbs
n.) 16.5 kg → 16.5 × 2.2 =
36.3 lbs
o.) 35 kg → 35 × 2.2 =
77 lbs
p.) 47.5 kg → 47.5 × 2.2 = let’s calculate:
47 × 2.2 = 103.4
0.5 × 2.2 = 1.1
Total = 103.4 + 1.1 =
104.5 lbs
q.) 55 kg → 55 × 2.2 =
121 lbs
r.) 3000 grams = 3 kg →
3 kg
s.) 5000 grams = 5 kg → 5 × 2.2 =
11 lbs
t.) 6000 grams = 6 kg →
6 kg
u.) 7500 grams = ? kg and ? lbs
7500 g = 7.5 kg
7.5 × 2.2 = 16.5 lbs
So:
7.5 kg = 16.5 lbs
