Answer: 31.5

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this ratio problem, you need the common ratio. Divide the amount of pounds by the amount of kilograms.

Step 1: Divide 100 pounds by 45 kilograms

100 ÷ 45 = 2.2

This is the common ratio

Step 2: Divide 70 pounds by 2.2

70 ÷ 2.2 = 31.5

This is the amount of kilograms in a 70 pound object
