I can't recall off the top of my head but search on google.com for it. Just type kilo to pound conversion and you'll get your answer.

So I'm bored and took my advice. The answer from google is 1 kilogram = 2.20462262 pound

both are... it just depends which way you're converting...

from pounds to kilograms you multiply the pounds by 0.45

from kilograms to pounds you multiply the kilos by 2.2

example:

20 pounds x 0.45 = 9 kilos

9 kilos x 2.2 = 19.8 pounds (~20lb)
