Answer: No

Explanation:

Weight limit = 40 Lb

Weight given = 21 kg

Conversion factor

2.2 Lb = 1 kg

2.2 x 21 = 46.2

46.2 Lb = 21 kg

46.2 > 40, the stand cannot support the TV

Answer: No, the stand will not support the TV. It is too heavy.

Work Shown:

1 kg = 2.2 lbs approximately

21*1 kg = 21*2.2 lbs

21 kg = 46.2 lbs

A 21 kilogram tv is roughly equivalent to 46.2 pounds.

This exceeds the 40 pound weight limit, so this stand will not support it.
