Question

What is the mass of a 2000 pound elephant in kg?

Answer 1

907.2 kilograms

Explanation:

To convert pounds to kilograms we must resort to the conversion factor between both units.

Where 1 pound is equal to 0.4536 kilograms.

Therefore:

`2000\text{ pounds}\cdot\frac{0.4536\text{ kg}}{1\text{ pound}}=907.2\text{ kg}`

The mass of the elephant is 907.2 kilograms
