    return kilograms * 2.20462262185

You may use this function, in your program, to convert Kilograms to Pounds.

The following is an example program, where we shall use the above conversion function, and convert 10 Kilograms to Pounds and print the result to output.

Python Program

# Function that converts Kilograms to Pounds
def kilogramsToPounds(kilograms):
    return kilograms * 2.20462262185

if __name__ == "__main__":
    # Given kilograms
    kilograms = 10

    # Convert Kilograms to Pounds
