Find the conversion factor from Pound-force to Newton
1 lbf = 4.448221615 N
factor = 4.448221615 ÷ 1 = 4.448221615 N per lbf
Multiply by the factor: lbf cancels, leaving N
N = lbf × (N per lbf)
1 lbf × 4.448221615 N per lbf = 4.448221615 N
How it works
1 lbf = 4.448221615 N, so N = lbf × 4.448221615
