1 pound = 0.45359237 kilograms
Times by 2.25

Thank you OJ but I'm still baffled.

I'm too old for new-fangled measurements. :o(
Question Author
Thank you too Dicky.
2.20 x 2.25 =£4.95
£4.95
£4.80 per kilo
Question Author
Fabulous, thanks very much.
since 1 kilo is 2.18 lb.
Windy, my old and very cheap mobile has a conversion prog on it. ibs to kilos and inches to cms. Have a look and see if yours has one. Sorry I am assuming that you have one. dtc)
£2.20 x 1000 ÷ 454 = £4.85

1 kilo is actually just over 2.20 lb
...if you insist....
I'm too polite to insist :+)

I do have a mobile but it's very basic and the blooming thing is always out of battery because I forget to plug it in and charge it up.

Guess there's no hope for me really, old age is getting a grip. Thanks heaps to you guys (and girls) for coming to my assistance. What a great site this is. xxx
If it helps, a pound is half a kilo, for all everyday, practical, purposes e.g at a sweetshop or delicatessen counter. Indeed,the French still sometimes call 500gms a 'livre', literally a 'pound'. Old habits die hard; in their case, over 200 years!
Question Author
It does help, thanks Fred.
1 Kilo is 2.2lb.....2lb = £4.40 plus 1/5 of £2.20 =44p....1 Kilo = £4.84 Simples! (I went to Arley Herbert Fowler Secondry Modern school) (I put that in just in case Iv'e got it wrong)....
A pack of butter that used to weigh 8ozs now weighs 250gms. " 2 too the old lb if that helps any
Not really... because the 8 oz butter actually weighed 227 gm!
1kilo = 2.245 lbs
1lb = 452 grams ( 1000 grams in a kilo)
hope this helps
