To convert kilograms (kg) to pounds (lbs), you can use the following step-by-step instructions:
Step 1: Understand the conversion factor
1 kilogram (kg) is equal to 2.20462 pounds (lbs). This means that to convert kg to lbs, you need to multiply the weight in kg by 2.20462.
Step 2: Set up the conversion equation
Let’s denote the weight in kg as “x” and the weight in lbs as “y”. The conversion equation can be written as:
x kg * 2.20462 lbs/kg = y lbs
Step 3: Plug in the given weight in kg
In this case, the given weight is 35 kg. So, we substitute x = 35 kg into the equation:
35 kg * 2.20462 lbs/kg = y lbs
Step 4: Perform the calculation
Multiply 35 kg by 2.20462 to find the weight in lbs:
35 kg * 2.20462 lbs/kg = 77.1617 lbs
Step 5: Round the result (if necessary)
Since weight is typically rounded to the nearest whole number, we can round 77.1617 lbs to 77 lbs.
Therefore, 35 kg is approximately equal to 77 lbs.
