We need to convert kilograms to pounds.

1 kilogram is equal to 2.20462 pounds.

Therefore, we can use the rule of three to find the value of 74 kilograms in pounds:

1 kilogram ------------- 2.20462 pounds

74 kilogram ----------- x

Where x = (74 kilogram * 2.20462 pounds)/ 1 kilogram = 163.14188

Rounded to the nearest hundred x = 163.14
