question 17
20 lbs = ____ kg

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the conversion factor

We know that \( 1\ \text{lb} \approx 0.453592\ \text{kg} \).

Step2: Multiply the pounds by the conversion factor

To convert \( 20\ \text{lbs} \) to kilograms, we use the formula: \( \text{Weight in kg} = \text{Weight in lbs} \times 0.453592 \).
So, \( 20 \times 0.453592 = 9.07184 \).

Answer:

\( 20\ \text{lbs} \approx 9.07\ \text{kg} \) (or more precisely \( 9.07184\ \text{kg} \))
