Question

If 1 kilogram (kg) is equal to about 2.2046 pounds (lbs.), what is the value of 1kg/2.2046lbs? What is the value of 2.2046lbs/1kg?

Answer 1

Both are same as 1.

Explanation:

1 kg = 2.2046 lbs

So,

`(1 kg)/(2.2046 lbs )=(1 kg )/(1 kg) = 1`

And

`(2.2046 lbs)/(1 kg )=(1 kg )/(1 kg) = 1`

Answer 2

Explanation:

The relation between kg and lbs is :

1 kg = 2.2046 lbs

We need to find the values of 1kg/2.2046lbs and 2.2046lbs/1kg.

So,

`(1\ kg)/(2.2046\ lbs)=(2.2046\ lbs)/(2.2046\ lbs)\\\\=1`

and

`(2.2046\ lbs)/(1\ kg)=(2.2046\ lbs)/(2.2046\ lbs)\\\\=1`

Hence, this is the required solution.
