Question: If an animal weighs 15 pounds, how many kg does it weigh?

"If an animal weighs 15 pounds, how many kg does it weigh?" A kilogram is not a force, so it does not "weigh" anything. The unit of weight in the mks system is the Newton, the unit of force. Pounds is both a unit of force, but most commonly a unit of mass.



"slh" answer is correct, this is just a very poorly worded question.
