Answer: 9.25 lbs

Step-by-step explanation:

The described situation can be modelled in the following equation:

Total=(5 lbs+8 oz)+(4 lbs+15 oz)

But firstly, we have to convert the amounts in ounces to pounds in order to work with the same units, taking into account 1 oz=0.0625 lbs:

8 oz \frac{0.0625 lbs}{1 oz}=0.3125 lbs

15 oz \frac{0.0625 lbs}{1 oz}=0.937 lbs

Then:

Total=(5 lbs+0.3125 lbs)+(4 lbs+15 oz+0.937 lbs)

Total=9.25 lbs This is the totall Amy bought
