To do it without the help of a conversion calculator, do dimensional analysis using known conversions:

(1) 132 lbs x 2.2 kg/1 lb=290.4 kg
(2) 10 gal x 3.785 L/1 gal=37.85 L
(3) 0.75 m x 100 cm/1 m x 1 in/2.54 cm=29.53 in
(4) 0.50 lb x 454 g/1 lb=227 g

Dimensional analysis-start off with the measurement to be converted and multiply it by a conversion factor with the unit of measure of the previous conversion in the denominator. Simply multiply through while crossing off repeated conversion units, for example, for #4, you start with 0.50 lb. You multiply that by conversion factor of 454 g/1 lb (notice how lb on bottom). Now you can cross off both lb's. So then your answer would be 0.50 times 454 grams.

So I believe the answers are:
(see above where I worked them out)

By the way, if necessary round to the correct number of sig figs (significant figures)
