Kilograms to pounds uses the exact factor 1 lb = 0.45359237 kg (1959 international yard and pound agreement). So lb = kg ÷ 0.45359237, equivalently kg × 2.20462. A 70 kg adult weighs 154.3 lb; a 5 kg dumbbell is 11.02 lb. The shortcut "double and add 10 %" gives 154 lb for 70 kg — close enough for a gym chat but wrong for medical dosing, which always uses the exact factor. Avoir-dupois pounds (the everyday "pound") are different from troy pounds used for precious metals.
Airline check-in counters and gym equipment plates are the two places travellers and lifters hit this constantly — a 23 kg baggage allowance is 50.71 lb, a 20 kg barbell plate pair is 44.09 lb, and 100 kg on a deadlift bar is 220.5 lb. Weighing yourself on a US bathroom scale after using kilogram-only scales at home is a common source of confusion; keep the exact factor (2.20462) rather than the rough "times 2.2" shortcut when packing right up against an airline's weight limit.

The kilogram (kg) is the SI base unit of mass. Since the 2019 redefinition it is defined by fixing the Planck constant to exactly 6.62607015 × 10⁻³⁴ J·s, replacing the old International Prototype Kilogram artifact. In everyday use, the kilogram is the global standard for body weight, groceries, and engineering specifications.
The international avoirdupois pound (lb) is a unit of mass in the imperial and US customary systems, defined as exactly 0.45359237 kilograms since the 1959 international yard and pound agreement. It is the everyday unit for body weight, groceries, and shipping in the United States. Sixteen ounces make one pound; fourteen pounds make one stone in British usage.
