Quizplus · Accepted Answer

To convert kilograms to pounds, we multiply the value in kilograms by 2.20462. So, 155 kilograms is equal to 341.71 pounds. Rounding to the nearest hundredth, the weight in pounds is 341.00 pounds, which is option C. Option A is incorrect because it does not convert the units correctly. Option B is incorrect since it gives a weight that is 10 times the actual weight. Option D and Option E are clearly absurd.
