Let's convert 10.0 pounds to kilograms.

We know:

1 lb = 453.6 g and 1 kg = 1000 g

We will multiply 10 LB by a conversion factor that changes the units from LB to g. Then we will multiply by a conversion factor to change g to kg.

What conversion factor should we use to convert pounds to grams?

1 LB/453.6 g 453.6 g/ 1 LB
