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: Substitute the given value
In this case, the given weight is 9.3 kg. So, we substitute x = 9.3 kg into the equation:
9.3 kg * 2.20462 lbs/kg = y lbs
Step 4: Perform the calculation
Multiply 9.3 kg by 2.20462 to find the weight in lbs:
9.3 kg * 2.20462 lbs/kg = 20.503 lbs
Step 5: Round the result (if necessary)
The result, 20.503 lbs, can be rounded to the desired level of precision. In this case, let’s round it to two decimal places:
20.503 lbs ≈ 20.50 lbs
Therefore, 9.3 kg is approximately equal to 20.50 lbs.
