A roll of aluminum has a mass of 1.06 kg. What is the mass in pounds?
1.06 kg x (2.2 pounds/kg) = ?
To convert the mass of aluminum from kilograms to pounds, you can use the conversion factor:
1 kilogram = 2.20462 pounds
Now, we will multiply the mass of the aluminum roll by this conversion factor to calculate its mass in pounds.
Mass in pounds = Mass in kilograms × Conversion factor
Mass in pounds = 1.06 kg × 2.20462 pounds/kg
Mass in pounds ≈ 2.34 pounds
Therefore, the mass of the aluminum roll is approximately 2.34 pounds.
