The first step is to convert the unit of force due to gravity (pounds) into units of mass (grams). To do this, we will divide by gravity's acceleration: 80/32(feet/sec2) = 2.5 slugs (English unit for mass).

The last step is to convert slugs to grams. since there are 14,594 grams per slug, our answer becomes: 2.5 x 14,594 = 36,485 grams. In kilograms this equals ~36.5 kilograms.

Therefore, there are 36,485 grams in 80 pounds.
