You're more than welcome!
\(1 ~pound = 4.536 \times 10^{-1} ~kg\) \(1~pound = 0.4536~kg\) Divide both sides of the equation above by 0.4536. \(\dfrac{1~pound}{0.4536~kg} = \dfrac{0.4536~kg}{0.4536~kg} = 1\) \(\dfrac{1~pound}{0.4536~kg} = 1\) Now you have a conversion factor that equals one. Start with 90 kg and multiply by the conversion factor. Since the conversion factor is equal to 1, multiplying will not change the amount. It will only change the units. \(90~\cancel{kg} \times \dfrac{1~pound}{0.4536~\cancel{kg}} = 198.413 ~pounds\)
