liberstina [14]

Answer: $39\ \text{Ounces}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The amount of cashews is $1\frac{1}{4}\ \text{Pounds}$

Amount of almonds $7\ \text{ounces}$

The amount of pecans is $\frac{3}{4}\ \text{Pounds}$

We know, $1\ \text{Pound}=16\ \text{Ounces}$

Converting pounds to ounces and adding them

$\Rightarrow 1\dfrac{1}{4}\times 16+7+\dfrac{3}{4}\times 16\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{5}{4}\times 16+7+3\times 4\\\\\Rightarrow 20+7+12=39\ \text{ounces}\ or\ \dfrac{39}{16}\ \text{Pounds}$
