Aveterinarian needs to know an animals weight in kilograms. if 20 pounds is about 9 kilograms and a dog weighs 30 pounds, use a ratio table to find the dogs weight in kilograms.

13.5 kgs.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have to find conversion factor of lbs into kg.

For this we use the given information.

Given that the weight of a dog is 20 lbs and also 9 kg.

Hence we have conversion factor as

20 lbs = 9 kg

Or 1 lb =9/20 = 0.45 kg.

Using this, we find the 30 lb converted into kg.

For 1 lb, equivalent kg = 0.45

Hence for 30 lbs equivalent kg= 30(0.45) = 13.5 kg.
