Question 236322: how do you convert 4 1/8 pounds to ounces.
Answer by Theo(13342)   (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! convert 4 + 1/8 pounds to ounces.
there are 16 ounces to the pound.
the ratio of ounces to pounds is 16/1.
multiply your pounds by 16/1 to get ounces.
4 + 1/8 pounds * 16 = 16*4 + 16*(1/8) = 64 + 2 = 66 ounces
to convert this back to pounds, divide by 16 to get:
66 / 16 = 4.125 pounds.
that's equal to 4 pounds plus .125 pounds.
multiply .125 * 8/8 to get 1/8.
your answer of 66 ounces is back to 4 and 1/8 pounds which confirms your answer is good.
your answer is 66 ounces.
