Question

18. Write conversion factors (as ratios) for the number of:
(a) yards in 1 meter
(b) liters in 1 liquid quart
(c) pounds in 1 kilogram
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Conversion tables show:

1 m = 1.09361 yds

1 Lit = .26418 gal = 1.05672 qt     or 1 qt = .944632 Lit

1 lb = .45359 kg = 2.2046 Lbs / Kg

So X yds = X  m * 1.09361 yds / m = 1.09361 * X yds

Likewise X Lit  = X  qt  / 1.05672 qt/ Lit = X / 1.05672 Lit = .94632  X Lit

So X  Lbs =  X kg * 2.2046 Lbs / Kg = 2.2046 Lbs
