Answer: 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
3.05 or 31/2 pounds
56 ounces
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the total weight all the weights have to have the same units of measurements
It is either pounds is converted to ounces or ounces is converted to pounds
1. convert ounces to pound
1 ounce = 0.0625
12 ounces = 0.0625 x 12 = 0.75 pounds or 3/4
add together = 1 1/2 + 3/4 + 1 1/4 = ![1\frac{1}{2} + \frac{3}{4} + 1\frac{1}{4}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=1%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%20%2B%20%5Cfrac%7B3%7D%7B4%7D%20%20%2B%201%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B4%7D)
=
= 3 1/2
2. 16 ounces = 1 pound
flour = 16 x 1 1/2 = 24
sugar = 16 x 1 1/4 = 20
total = 24 + 20 + 12 = 56 ounces
It would be -140=x... to get this you would multiply x over 14 by 14... since you did it to one side then you have to do it to the other
U write it as 1/6+1/6+1/6+1/6=4/6
