To convert 75 kilograms to ounces using the conversion factor you provided, you can follow these steps:
1. **Convert kilograms to grams**: Since 1 kilogram is equal to 1,000 grams, you can convert kilograms to grams as follows:
\[
75 \text{ kg} \times 1000 \text{ g/kg} = 75,000 \text{ g}
\]
2. **Convert grams to ounces**: Now, using the conversion factor that 1 ounce = 28.3 grams, you can convert grams to ounces by dividing the total grams by the number of grams per ounce:
\[
\text{Ounces} = \frac{75,000 \text{ g}}{28.3 \text{ g/ounce}}
\]
Performing the calculation:
\[
\text{Ounces} = \frac{75,000}{28.3} \approx 2,651.06
\]
So, 75 kilograms is approximately **2,651.06 ounces**.
