For instance, a 3% rate of defective products or services may be tolerable, but 5% may not be. Still, management should be always on guard for ways to improve procedures and reduce the number of defective products.
The UK Weights and Measures Act of 1878 first defined the imperial pound in terms of metric units (1lb = 453.59265g) , and in 1893 the Mendenhall Order defined the United States pound by describing a kilogram as equivalent to 2.20462 pounds.
Therefore, the ratio of the pound to the kilogram is lb/kg = 0.453 592 37. The question asks for the kilogram to pound ratio, which is the reciprocal of the pound to kilogram ratio: kg/lb = 1 / 0.453 592 37, which I am not evaluating as a decimal number because it would be an infinitely repeating cycle of digits. The ratio expression I have given is exact by definition.
