Question

How many kilograms are there in 4 pounds?
Hint: 1lb≈0.454kg
Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

Answer 1

To convert pounds to kilograms using the given conversion factor, you can use the following formula:

\[
\text{kilograms} = \text{pounds} \times 0.454
\]

For 4 pounds, the calculation would be:

\[
\text{kilograms} = 4 \, \text{lb} \times 0.454 \, \frac{\text{kg}}{\text{lb}} = 1.816 \, \text{kg}
\]

Rounding \(1.816\) to the nearest tenth gives:

\[
\text{kilograms} \approx 1.8 \, \text{kg}
\]

So, there are approximately \(1.8\) kilograms in \(4\) pounds.
