For this case we must make a conversion:

By definition, we know that:

1 pound equals 453.59 grams

By making a rule of three we have:

1 pound ----------------> 453.59 grams

x -------------------------> 6000 grams

Being "x" the number of pounds that represent 6000 grams.


x = \frac {6000 * 1} {453.59}\\x = 13.22780485\\x = 13.23\ pounds

Thus, 6000 grams equals approximately 13.23 pounds.

Answer:

13.23 pounds
