How do you covert pounds to killograms?

Answer 1

If you have the weight in pounds of some object on some planet,

multiply the weight by

14.594/acceleration of gravity on that planet in feet per sec2

or by

4.448/acceleration of gravity on that planet in meters per sec2

to find the mass of the object in kilograms.

Example:

On earth, an object that weighs 1 pound has 0.4536 kg of mass.

In other places, the relationship between mass and weight is different.

Answer 2

You multiply the amount of pounds by 0.45. ( 0.453592 to be more precise)

Algebraic Steps / Dimensional Analysis Formula ____ lb*1 kg

2.2046 lb=? kg

Answer 3

To convert pounds to kilograms, you can use the conversion factor of 1 pound = 0.453592 kilograms. Simply multiply the number of pounds by 0.453592 to get the equivalent weight in kilograms.
