Question

Ashley is ordering 6 bags of cat food from Canada. Each bag has a mass of 7.5kg . To determine the shipping costs, Ashley needs to know the total weight in pounds. What is the weight of the cat food in pounds?
Use 1kg = 2.2lb and do not round any computations.

Answer 1

Answer: 99 lbs

Step-by-step explanation: First, you need to know how much the cat food weighs in total: 6*7.5=45kg

Next, you need to convert the kg into lbs: 45* 2.2=99 lbs

(note 1 kg=2.2 lbs is already rounded)
