however, stone is an English measurement, whilst people in the US tend to use pounds (lb) and the scientific (SI) unit is grams (g) and kilograms (kg).
There's 14 lb in a stone, and it's 2.20462 lb to a kg (although i use 2.2 when quickly working things out!)
Thus 13.5 (however, does that mean 13 and a half stone or 13 stone 5 lbs????) is therefore:
85.91 kg (2.2 lb / kg)
85.73 kg (2.20462 lb / kg)
85 kg (2.2 lb and 13stone5lb)Ric
