Sonja caught three fish. The weights of the fish were 3 lb 2 oz, 1 lb 11 oz, and 2 lb 6 oz. What was the total weight of the three fish? (1 lb =16 oz)

Sagot :

We will have that the total weight of the fish was:

[tex]W=3lb\ast\frac{16oz}{1lb}+2oz+2lb\ast\frac{16oz}{1lb}+6oz\Rightarrow W=88oz[/tex]

So, the total weight of the fish was 88 oz, that is 5.5lb.
