Step 1: Convert kilograms to stones

• 1 stone is equal to 6.35 kilograms.

To get the number of stones, we divide the total weight in kilograms (62 kg) by 6.35.

62kg÷6.35kg per stone=9.76stones

This means that 62 kg is approximately 9.76 stones. Now, we want to break down this number into stones and pounds.

Step 2: Separate the whole stones from the decimal part

• The whole number is 9 stones.
• The decimal part is 0.76 stones.

Step 3: Convert the decimal part into pounds

• 1 stone = 14 pounds.
• Now, multiply the decimal (0.76) by 14 to convert it into pounds:

   0.76stones×14pounds per stone=10.64pounds

Step 4: Round to the nearest pound

• Since 10.64 pounds is closer to 11 pounds than to 10 pounds, we can round it up to 11 pounds.

Final Answer

Therefore, 62 kg is approximately 9 stones and 11 pounds.

In summary:
