Ok so I can't see all the numbers clearly on my scale wen I do it in lbs. So wen I did kg in tried to convert it to lbs my numbers didn't match. So my ? Is. Do the kg number supposed to match the lbs number always?

Replies

  • 1kg=2.2ibs. Are you taking the kg wt. and MULTILE by 2.2 to get ibs? and YES, the number would match if your doing the convertion correct.
