to solve lawrence's basal metabolic rate, convert first his mass to kilograms. so 1 kg is equivalent to 2.2 lbs
mass = 198 lb ( 1 kg / 2.2 lbs )
mass = 90 kg

basal metabolic rate = 90 kg ( 1 kcal / kg hr )
basal metabolic rate = 90 kcal / hr is the basal metabolic rate of lawrence

We are given with
weight = 198 lb
average basal metabolic rate = 1.0 kcal/kg/hr

Convert pounds to kilograms
198 lb (1 kg/2.2 lb)  = 90 kg

The basal metabolic rate of Lawrence is
90 kg (1.0 kcal / kg/hr) = 90 kcal/hr
