Now if we have 7.5 pounds of apples first we need to convert 1 pound into ounces.
1 pound = 16 ounces.
Now we know how many ounces are in one pound. So lets take the 16 ounces for 1 pound and multiply by the 7 full pounds of apples. This excluding the 1/2 pound of apples.
7 x 16 = 112
(7 being the weight in pounds of the apples, 16 being 16 ounces in one pound, and 112 is how any ounces are in 7 pounds of apples.)
So now we have the amount of ounces in 7 pounds of apples.
But we are not done. We still have the 1/2 pound of apples. So we take 16 being 1 pound of apples and divide it by 2.
16 divided by 2 = 8
That 1/2 pound of apples = 8 ounces.
So now we have our 7 pounds of apples in ounces (112) and our 1/2 pound of apples in ounces (8)
So we add these back up in ounces
112 + 8 = 120.
So now we can conclude:
7.5 pounds of apples is 120 ounces
Hope this helps!

Are you trying to make an algebraic equation?
x = # of trees
y = gal of water
It would be 30x = y
