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 96 kg. So, we substitute x = 96 kg into the equation:
96 kg * 2.20462 lbs/kg = y lbs
Step 4: Perform the calculation
Multiply 96 kg by 2.20462 to find the weight in lbs:
96 kg * 2.20462 lbs/kg = 211.64432 lbs
Step 5: Round the result (if necessary)
Since weight is typically rounded to the nearest whole number, you can round 211.64432 lbs to 212 lbs.
Therefore, 96 kg is approximately equal to 212 lbs.
