Answer: The 3-kilogram roast beef weighs more than a 6-pound roast.

Explanation:

We need to convert 3 kilograms to pounds.

Multiply 2.2 by 3.

2.2 x 3 = 6.6

3-kilograms is 6.6 pounds. Now lets compare that to the 6-pound roast.

6.6 > 6

So we can conclude that the 3-kilogram roast beef weighs more than a 6-pound roast.
