Default convert kilograms to stones AND pounds

.... and even more interestingly:
11 Stones-1.98951966012828E-13 Pounds for 69.9999999999999 kg :-)

Chip,

Would it not be better to ROUND() or TRUNC() the pounds because you
formula returns

10 Stones 5.20000000000002 Pounds

for 66 Kg

The following formula will return a string like "10 Stones 5 Pounds"
where cell A2 contains the weight in Kg.

=TRUNC(A2*2.2/14)&" Stones"&A2*2.2-(TRUNC(A2*2.2/14)*14)&" Pounds"

Converting Kilograms to Stones is straight forward but is it possible to
take the part of the number after the decimal point and convert it to
pounds?
