Convert turkey to pounds using 1 kg ≈ 2.2 lb:
1.5 kg × 2.2 lb/kg = 3.3 lb
Compare to cheese: 2.25 lb.
3.3 lb (turkey) > 2.25 lb (cheese), so Roger bought more turkey.
Difference: 3.3 − 2.25 = 1.05 lb more turkey (equivalently, about 0.48 kg more: 1.5 − 2.25/2.2 ≈ 0.48 kg).
1.5 kg × 2.2 lb/kg = 3.3 lb
Compare to cheese: 2.25 lb.
3.3 lb (turkey) > 2.25 lb (cheese), so Roger bought more turkey.
Difference: 3.3 − 2.25 = 1.05 lb more turkey (equivalently, about 0.48 kg more: 1.5 − 2.25/2.2 ≈ 0.48 kg).
