What we do not know is the time spent on the second leg. To get the time spent on the second leg of the journey, we only need to get the total distance divided by the speed.

We can get the distance using the first part of the question. The time is 6 hours and the speed is x miles per hour, the total distance is this 6x miles.

Now we need to know the time spent on the second leg of the journey. We know that the distance is the same. Hence the time spent is 6x/y where y is the speed for the second leg and 6x is the length of each leg

Now the total time spent is thus (6x/y +6) hours. We need to however convert this to minutes. We do this by multiplying by 60

(6x/y + 6) * 60

Convert 7 pounds 3 ounces to

svetoff [14.1K]

7 pounds and 3 ounces equal to 3.27 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to convert 7 pounds and 3 ounces to kilograms.

We know:

1 lb = 16 oz

and 1 kg = 2.2 lb

where lb stands for pounds and oz stands for ounces and kg stands for kilograms.

$16\,\,oz = 1\,\,pound\\1\,\,oz = \frac{1}{16} \,\,pound\\3\,\,oz = \frac{1}{16} * 3\,\,pounds\\3\,\,oz = 0.1875\,\,pounds$

So, Total pounds = 7+0.1875 = 7.1875

Now, Converting Pounds to kg

$2.2\,\,pounds = 1\,\,kg\\1\,\,pound = \frac{1}{2.2} \,\,kg\\7.1875\,\,pounds = \frac{1}{2.2} * 7.18757.1875\,\,pounds = 3.27\,\,kg$

So, 7 pounds and 3 ounces equal to 3.27 kg
