To convert pound to kilogram you have to do as follows:

1 pound equals to 0.45 kilograms

Using cross multiplication you can determine how many kilograms are equivalent to 160pounds:


\begin{gathered} (0.45)/(1)=(x)/(160) \\ 0.45\cdot160=x \\ x=72 \end{gathered}

160pounds are equal to 72 kilograms
