Question

How many ounces are in 8lb and 3 ounces

Answer 1

Hi there!

Simple conversion will greatly help us here. Below I'll list some common conversions for pounds and ounces.

16 ounces = 1 pound
32 ounces = 2 pounds

These will greatly aid us in finding how many ounces are in 3lb and 3 ounces. If we know that 2 pounds = 32 ounces then we know that by multiplying that by 4 we'll get how many ounces 8lb is.

32 ounces * 4 = 128 ounces.

However, we're not done there! There are also a leftover 3 ounces meaning once we add that to our 128 ounces we'll get our final answer.

3 ounces + 128 ounces = 8lb and 3 ounces.
131 ounces = 8lb and 3 ounces.

And that's our final answer. :)
