A quarter weighs about 0.2 ounce. About how many quarters weigh 2 pounds?​

Sagot :

16 quarters, because 16 ounces make a pound, 32 ounces make 2 pounds, and you divide by two, giving you 16 ounces. (You divide by two cause its .2 ounce)

Answer:  160 quarters

Work Shown:

1 quarter = 0.2 oz

10 quarters = 2 oz .... multiply both sides by 10

80 quarters = 16 oz .... multiply both sides by 8

80 quarters = 1 pound

160 quarters = 2 pounds .... multiply both sides by 2

Side note: 160 quarters is worth 160*0.25 = 40 dollars.
