Using a proportion, determine how many kilograms are equal to 185 pounds. Round to the nearest whole number. 1 kg 2.2 lbs.
62 kg
75 kg
84 kg
92 kg
Using the proportion 1 kg/2.2 lbs = x kg/185 lbs, we can cross multiply and solve for x:
2.2 * x = 1 * 185
2.2x = 185
x = 185/2.2
x ≈ 84 kg
Therefore, 185 pounds is approximately equal to 84 kilograms.
