Q: How many tablespoons are equivalent to 3 ounces?

The correct answer is:6 tablespoons Explanation A US fluid ounce is a measure of volume: $1\ \text{fl oz} = 2\ \text{tbsp}$. So multiply that conversion by 3. Steps: Use the conversion: $$1\ \text{fl oz} = 2\ \text{tbsp}$$ Multiply by 3: $$3\ \text{fl oz} = 3 \times 2\ \text{tbsp} = 6\ \text{tbsp}$$ Therefore, 3 ounces equals 6 tablespoons.

Q: How many pounds is 62 kg?

The correct answer is: $136.6866025546241\text{ lb}$ Explanation We use the conversion factor $1\text{ kg} = 2.2046226218487757\text{ lb}$. Steps: Multiply the mass by the conversion factor: $$62\text{ kg}\times 2.2046226218487757\frac{\text{lb}}{\text{kg}} = 136.6866025546241\text{ lb}$$ Round as desired: to two decimal places $$\approx 136.69\text{ lb}$$ (to one decimal place $$\approx 136.7\text{ lb}$$). Therefore, 62 kg ≈ 136.69 lb (exactly about 136.6866 lb).

Q: Convert 165 pounds into kilograms.

The correct answer is: $74.84274105\text{ kg}$ Explanation We convert pounds to kilograms using the exact conversion factor $1\text{ lb} = 0.45359237\text{ kg}$. Multiplying 165 pounds by that factor gives the mass in kilograms. Steps: Use the conversion factor: $1\text{ lb} = 0.45359237\text{ kg}$. Multiply: $$165\times 0.45359237 = 74.84274105$$ Attach the unit: $74.84274105\text{ kg}$. Therefore, 165 pounds equals $74.84274105\text{ kg}$ (commonly rounded to $74.84\text{ kg}$).

Q: What is 300 milliliters in fluid ounces?

The correct answer is: $10.14\text{ US fl oz (approx.)}$ Explanation We convert using the US fluid ounce definition: $1\text{ US fl oz} = 29.5735295625\text{ mL}$, so multiply mL by the factor $1/29.5735295625 \approx 0.0338140226$. Steps: Multiply: $$300\text{ mL}\times 0.0338140226\frac{\text{US fl oz}}{\text{mL}}=10.14420678\text{ US fl oz}$$ Round to a sensible precision: $$\approx10.14\text{ US fl oz}$$ If you meant imperial (UK) fluid ounces instead: $$300\text{ mL}\div28.4130625\frac{\text{mL}}{\text{imp fl oz}}\approx10.56\text{ imp fl oz}$$

Q: What is 103 kg in lbs?

The correct answer is: $227.08\text{ lb}$ Explanation To convert kilograms to pounds multiply by the conversion factor $2.2046226218\text{ lb/kg}$. For 103 kg, multiply 103 by that factor and round to a convenient number of decimal places. Steps: Conversion factor: $1\text{ kg} = 2.2046226218\text{ lb}$ Multiply: $103\text{ kg}\times 2.2046226218\text{ lb/kg} = 227.0761300454\text{ lb}$ Round: $227.0761300454\text{ lb}\approx 227.08\text{ lb}$ Therefore, $103\text{ kg}\approx 227.08\text{ lb}$.

Question

Washington, D.C. | Location, Population & Status

Accepted Answer

Short answer: Washington, D.C. is the capital of the United States — a federal district (not a state) on the Potomac River; it had 689,545 residents in the 2020 U.S. Census and covers about 68.34 square miles (177 km²).

Location

Coordinates: about 38.9072° N, 77.0369° W.  
Sited on the Potomac River between the states of Maryland and Virginia; the District’s boundaries touch Maryland on three sides and the Potomac (across which lies Virginia) on the fourth.  
Key places inside the District: the U.S. Capitol, White House, National Mall, many federal agencies, museums (Smithsonian), and numerous monuments and memorials.

Population

Official 2020 Census population: 689,545 (this is the last full decennial census figure).  
The District’s population has changed since 2020 (pandemic-related out‑migration and later recovery affected counts), so annual Census Bureau estimates vary — check the Census QuickFacts or the District’s official statistics office for the latest estimate.  
Demographically the city is diverse: historically a large African American population, with substantial non-Hispanic white, Hispanic/Latino, and Asian communities; the city has seen demographic shifts in recent decades tied to housing, economics, and in‑migration.

Status & Governance

Constitutional basis: The District was created under Article I, Section 8, Clause 17 of the U.S. Constitution as a federal seat of government. The Residence Act (1790) established the seat; land was originally ceded by Maryland and Virginia (the Virginia portion, Alexandria, was returned in 1846).  
Legal/political status: Washington, D.C. is a federal district — not one of the 50 states.  
Local government: The Home Rule Act of 1973 created an elected mayor and a 13-member Council of the District of Columbia to manage local affairs. However, Congress retains ultimate authority over the District and can review or overturn local laws and budgets.  
Representation in federal government:
D.C. has one non-voting delegate in the U.S. House of Representatives (can sit on committees and vote in committee but not vote on final passage on the House floor).  
D.C. has no voting Senators.  
By the 23rd Amendment (1961), D.C. residents have three electoral votes in presidential elections (the same number as the least-populous states).

Current political note

There is an active and long-standing movement for D.C. statehood (which would give full congressional representation). Bills and resolutions have been introduced in Congress multiple times; as of mid‑2024 the District remains a federal district rather than a state. For the latest status on legislation, check the current Congressional record.

Quick facts

Area: ~68.34 sq mi (177 km²)

If you’d like, I can:

Give the most recent population estimate (I can look up the latest Census Bureau QuickFacts for the current year),  
Provide a breakdown of demographics, economy, or major neighborhoods, or  
Summarize the statehood arguments for and against. Which would you prefer?
