To convert 8.5 ounces to kilograms, first convert ounces to grams using the given conversion (16 ounces = 453.6 g), then convert grams to kilograms. $8.5 \, \text{ounces} \times \frac{453.6 \, \text{g}}{16 \, \text{ounces}} = 241.2 \, \text{g}$, and $241.2 \, \text{g} \div 1000 = 0.2412 \, \text{kg}$, which rounds to 0.24 kg.
