What is 610 to kg? (round to the nearest hundredth)

### Dimensional Analysis Conversion Example: Pounds to Kilograms

#### Problem Statement:
Use the given equivalents, along with dimensional analysis, to convert the given unit to the unit indicated.

**Example Conversion:**  
- Convert 610 lb to kg

#### Given Equivalents:
- 16 oz = 1 lb
- 2000 lb = 1 T
- 1 oz ≈ 28 g
- 1 lb ≈ 0.45 kg
- 1 T ≈ 0.9 t

#### Solution:
1. Identify the conversion factor between pounds (lb) and kilograms (kg):
   \[
   1 \text{ lb} \approx 0.45 \text{ kg}
   \]
2. Multiply the given weight in pounds by the conversion factor:
   \[
   610 \text{ lb} \times 0.45 \text{ kg/lb} = 274.5 \text{ kg}
   \]

#### Final Answer:
- 610 lb = **274.5 kg** (Round to the nearest hundredth as needed.)

Enter your answer in the answer box provided.
