The dosage for a medicine used to treat a male Siberian tiger that weighs 550 pounds is based on the tiger’s weight in kilograms(kg). What is the tigers weight in kg? (1kg=2.2lbs)

Answer 1

To convert 550 pounds to kilograms, you would divide the weight in pounds by 2.2 (since 1 kg is equal to 2.2 lbs):

550 lbs / 2.2 = 250 kg

Therefore, the male Siberian tiger weighs 250 kg.
