Frequently Asked Questions

How many pounds are in a kilogram?

1 kilogram = 2.20462 pounds (exact to 5 decimal places). The commonly-used approximation is 1 kg ≈ 2.2 lb. For body weight: 70 kg = 154.3 lb, 80 kg = 176.4 lb, 100 kg = 220.5 lb.

How many grams in an ounce?

1 ounce (avoirdupois) = 28.3495 grams. The kitchen shortcut is 1 oz ≈ 28 g. Note: troy ounces (used for precious metals) = 31.1035 g — heavier than the regular ounce.

What is a stone in pounds and kg?

1 stone = 14 pounds = 6.35029 kg. Stone is used almost exclusively in the UK and Ireland for human body weight. 11 stone = 154 lb = 69.85 kg. Most of the world uses kg; the US uses lb exclusively.

How many ounces in a pound?

16 ounces = 1 pound. This is the avoirdupois system used for everyday goods. Note: the troy system (used for gold, silver, gems) has 12 troy ounces per troy pound — different from the standard avoirdupois pound.

What is the difference between mass and weight?

In everyday use, 'weight' usually means mass (the amount of matter in an object). In physics, weight is a force (mass × gravitational acceleration). A 70 kg person has a weight of 686 newtons on Earth but 113 newtons on the Moon — the mass stays the same. Conversion tools deal with mass.
