The 2.2 value isn't that important here.
What IS important is that it it takes MORE THAN 1 pound to equal 1 kilogram.
So, to reduce our calculations, let's just say that 2 pounds = 1 kilogram
This means there are 25 kilograms in 50 pounds.
And it means there 100 pounds in 50 kilograms
So, we have:
Quantity A: 25
Quantity B: 100
Answer: B
