Answer

There are 0.4536 kilograms per 1 avoirdupois pound OR 2.2046 pounds in 1 kilogram.

0.373241 kilograms equal 1 troy pound. Troy weights are for gold, silver, platinum, and other expensive materials. The now discontinued Apothecaries' weights are for medicine. Avoirdupois is for everything else. The metric system does not distinguish between cheap and expensive materials. Since the 1950's, medicine has been measured in metric units, soon found to be superior to the old Apothecaries' units.
