Question

Given that 1 kilogram weighs approximately 22 pounds, rewrite 10 pounds as an equivalent number of kilograms

Answer 1

0.4545 kgs.

Explanation:

Given that 1 kg weighs approximately 22 pounds.

i.e. 1kg= 22 lbs.

We can use this to convert lbs into kg.

22 lbs = 1 kg

Hence 1 lb = 1/22 = 0.04545 kg

Now to find out the equivalent weight for 10lbs,

we have conversion factor as 1 lb= 0.04545 kg

Hence 10 lbs = 10(0.04545) = 0.4545 kgs

Hence 10 pounds written in equivalent kgs would be0.4545 kgs.
