100 pounds is 45.36 kilograms, or 7.14 stone.
A pound is exactly 0.45359237 kilograms, so multiply the pound value by that factor: 100 × 0.45359237 = 45.3592 kg. Rounding the factor to 0.4536 is accurate enough for everyday use.

In stones, 7 stone is 44.45 kg, so 45.359237 kg is 0.91 kg over that mark. UK and Irish scales usually display the stone figure and the leftover pounds separately rather than as a decimal.
One hundred pounds is 45.36 kg, and it is one of the closest near-misses between the systems: 45 kg is 99.2 lb. Those two round figures are only about four fifths of a pound apart, which is close enough to ignore in conversation and still enough to matter on a weight-limited fitting.
