1 pounds =16 ouncesSamuel weighs 165 pounds. How many ounces does Samuel weigh?

Sagot :

How many ounces does Samuel weigh?

We want to know how many ounces correspond to 165 pounds.

We have the following equivalence:

165 pounds ↔ ?

1 pound ↔ 16 ounces

If we divide both sides of the equivalence we will have the same result:

[tex]\frac{165\text{pounds}}{1\text{ pound}}=\frac{?\text{ ounces}}{16\text{ ounces}}[/tex]

Multiplying by 16 ounces both sides we have that:

[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{165\text{pounds}}{1\text{ pound}}\cdot16ounces=\frac{?\text{ ounces}}{16\text{ ounces}}\cdot16\text{ ounces} \\ \frac{165\text{pounds}}{1\text{ pound}}\cdot16ounces=?\text{ ounces} \\ 165\cdot16ounces=?\text{ ounces} \\ 2640\text{ ounces =? ounces} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Answer: D 2640 ounces
