Answer:

Explanation:

first of all the question is wrong 1 kilogram = 2.2046 pounds. and 1 pound = 0.4536kilogram.

if we want to convert 112lb into kilogram. we multiply it by 0.4536.

ie 112lb = 112x0.4536kg = 50.8032kg

to convert lb to kg you do this; lb x 0.4536

to convert kg to lb you do this; kg x 2.2046
