Answer:

m = 115.36 kg = 1.15E2 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

First we find a conversion between demog (dmgs) and lbs. It is given that the boy weights 86.45 lbs in real world, while he ways 7.4 dmgs in upside down world. Therefore,

7.4 dmgs = 86.45 lbs

1 dmgs = (86.45 lbs)/7.4

1 dmgs = 11.6824 lbs ------------- equation (1)

Now, we convert the mass of demogorgon baby into lbs:

Mass of demogorgon baby = m = 21.75 dmgs

using conversion factor from equation (1)

m = (21.75 dmgs)(11.6824 lbs/1 dmgs)

m = 254.1 lbs

Now, we convert this mass into kg, by using the conversion factor given in question:

m = (254.1 lbs)(454 g/1 lbs)(1 kg/1000 g)

m = 115.36 kg = 1.15E2 kg
