What is 95 kgs in stones and pounds?

The UK and US are two of the last few countries in the world still using the imperial system of measurements.

The US commonly measures weights of persons in pounds only (abbreviated to lbs).

Whereas in the UK, stones and pounds are commonly used when talking about ones weight.

Confusingly for visitors, the UK also interchanges between imperial and metric, for example a bag of sugar purchased in a supermarket will be listed as weighing 500 grams, but in a pub you will be served your beer in pints.

Continental Europe and most of the rest of the world now use the metric system, which is easier to understand as it is a decimal system.

Imperial System versus the Metric System

The United Kingdom invented the imperial system and the system of units were first defined in the British Weights and Measures Act of 1824.

The imperial system became commonly used throughout the former British Empire in the 19th and early 20th century. Although the vast majority of former colonies have now converted to using the metric system.

Imperial standard units can still be seen in public squares throughout the UK such as in Trafalgar Square in London or George Square in Glasgow.

In the imperial system of weights, one stone = 14 pounds and one pound = 16 ounces.

The metric system was originated in France by the French Academy of Sciences after the revolution of 1789.

The stone is a unit of mass (acceptable for use as weight on Earth) and is part of the imperial system of units. It has the symbol st.

In historical times actual stones were used as weights, a practice that was adopted worldwide for more than 2000 years.

In Europe, up until the 19th century, the stone was frequently used in the trade industry to measure weight. Each country had their own weight of the stone which varied between regions and what was being traded. As a result, the metric system was adopted in most European countries.

In England in 1389 a stone of wool was characterized as weighing fourteen pounds (lbs). Despite the fact that a stone of different materials would not necessarily weigh exactly fourteen pounds, the stone became accepted as weighing exactly 14 lbs.

The stone is also used in sports. In horse racing it is used to describe the weight that a horse has to carry. The weight includes the jockey as well as overweight, penalties and allowances. It is also used to express human bodyweight in sports such as boxing and wrestling.

In the UK and Ireland people will often use stone and pounds (e.g. 11 st 5 lbs) to express their weight. In contrast people in the United States will most commonly use just pounds (eg. 159 lbs).

Although the Stone has not been recognised in the UK as a unit of weight since 1985, it is still the most common and popular way of expressing human weight in this country.

The kilogram, or kilogramme, is the base unit of weight in the Metric system. It is the approximate weight of a cube of water 10 centimeters on a side.

A stone is a unit of weight equal to 14 pounds.It is commonly used in the British commonwealth when refering to the weight of a person.
