Question

0.5 kilograms (kg) is equal to how many ounces? Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

Answer 1

0.5 kilograms (kg) is equal to 17.6 ounces

Explanation:

We have

1 kg = 35.274 ounces

0.5 kg = 0.5 x 35.274 = 17.637 ounces

Rounding to nearest tenth

0.5 kg = 17.637 ounces = 17.64 ounces = 17.6 ounces

So we have 0.5 kilograms (kg) is equal to 17.6 ounces

Answer 2

17.6 ounces per 500 g

Explanation:

Knowing one ounce equals 28.34 g, all we have to do is divide half a kilo (500 g) by the equivalent of an ounce to get the number of ounces in a kg. So,

O = 500 g / 28.34g/ounce = 17.64 ounces

We round that to the nearest tenth... to get 17.6 ounces per 500 g

Converting between metric and imperial/US system is always complicated.
