Question 236322
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.
