For this case we must make a conversion:
By definition, we know that:
1 pound equals 453.59 grams
By making a rule of three we have:
1 pound ----------------> 453.59 grams
x -------------------------> 6000 grams
Being "x" the number of pounds that represent 6000 grams.
[tex]x = \frac {6000 * 1} {453.59}\\x = 13.22780485\\x = 13.23\ pounds[/tex]
Thus, 6000 grams equals approximately 13.23 pounds.
Answer:
13.23 pounds
