To convert 515 grams (g) to pounds (lb), let's break down the conversion factors being used:

1. Convert grams to kilograms (kg):  
   \[
   1 \, \text{kg} = 1000 \, \text{g}
   \]
   So, \( \frac{1 \, \text{kg}}{1000 \, \text{g}} \) is the conversion factor from grams to kilograms.

2. Convert kilograms to pounds:  
   \[
   1 \, \text{kg} = 2.20462 \, \text{lb}
   \]
   So, \( \frac{2.20462 \, \text{lb}}{1 \, \text{kg}} \) is the conversion factor from kilograms to pounds.

Now, apply these conversions:

\[
515 \, \text{g} \times \frac{1 \, \text{kg}}{1000 \, \text{g}} \times \frac{2.20462 \, \text{lb}}{1 \, \text{kg}} = \text{Result in pounds}
\]

Performing the calculation:

\[
515 \, \text{g} \times \frac{1}{1000} \times 2.20462 = 1.13538 \, \text{lb}
\]

Rounding to two decimal places:

\[
1.14 \, \text{lb}
\]

This matches the given result in the image: \( 1.14 \, \text{lb} \).
