AnnZ [12381]

The weight of an orangutan is 64.5 kilograms

Solution:

It is stated that the orangutan's weight is 142 pounds

Additionally,

1 kilogram is approximately 2.2 pounds

We will now convert 142 pounds into kilograms

1 kilogram = 2.2 pounds

$\text{1 pound } = \frac{1}{2.2} \text{ kilograms }$

As a result, 142 pounds translates to

$142 \text{ pound } = \frac{1}{2.2} \times 142 \text{ kilogrmas }$

$\rightarrow \frac{1}{2.2} \times 142 = 64.545 \text{ kilograms }$

When rounding to the nearest tenth, we obtain 64.5 kilograms

Therefore the mass of the orangutan is 64.5 kilograms
