Answer:

6\ lb = 2.724\ kg

11\ kg = 24.2\ lb

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

1\ kg = 2.2\ lb

1\ lb = 0.454\ kg

Required

- Convert 6 lb to kg

- Convert 11kg to lb

To solve for (a), we make use of the second conversion unit:

1\ lb = 0.454\ kg

Multiply both sides by 6

6 * 1\ lb = 0.454\ kg * 6

6\ lb = 2.724\ kg

<em>Hence, a 6lb backpack weighs 2.724kg</em>

Solving (b): 11 kg to lb

Here, we make use of the first conversion unit

1\ kg = 2.2\ lb

Multiply both sides by 11

11 * 1\ kg = 2.2\ lb * 11

11\ kg = 24.2\ lb

<em>Hence, the cat weighs 24.2lb</em>
