How to Convert Ounces to Kilograms
Example: How many kilograms are equivalent to 71.33 Ounces?
As;
1 Ounces = 0.02835 kilograms
71.33 Ounces = Y kilograms
Assuming Y is the answer, and by criss-cross principle;
Y equals 71.33 times 0.02835 over 1
(i.e.) Y = 71.33 * 0.02835 / 1 = 2.0222055 kilograms
Answer is: 2.0222055 kilograms are equivalent to 71.33 Ounces.
