To find Jeremy's weight gain, subtract his weight before the break (185 lbs 13 oz) from his post-break weight (191 lbs 6 oz).
\n" ); document.write( "191 lbs 6 oz - 185 lbs 13 oz Borrow 1 lb from the 191 and convert to oz (1 lb = 16 oz) and add this the 6 oz.
\n" ); document.write( "190 lbs 22 oz - 185 lbs 13 oz = 5 lbs 9 oz
\n" ); document.write( "Jeremy gained 5 lbs 9 oz.
