How it works

Exact factor: 1 lb = 0.45359237 kg, fixed by the 1959 international agreement. Quick estimate: halve the pounds and take off 10 % of the result (150 lb → 75 → 67.5 kg, exact 68.0 kg).

Body weight in the US is often given in pounds, and in the UK in stones and pounds: 1 stone = 14 lb = 6.35 kg, so 11 st 4 lb is 158 lb, which is 71.7 kg.
