The gross weight of a package and its contents is 11 pounds 5 ounces. If the packaging weighs 1 pound 15 ounces, what's the net
weight of the contents? A. 9 lb. 6 oz. B. 12 lb. 20 oz. C. 10 lb. 6 oz. D. 10 lb. 5 oz.

Answer A
For ease convert both into ounces.
Gross = (11x16) + 5 = 181 ounces
Packaging = (1x16) + 15 = 31 oz.
Now subtract Packaging from Gross
181 - 31 = 150 oz.
Divide by 16 to get pounds
150/16 = 9.375 - hence 9 lb.
and multiply 16 by .375 for ounces
0.375 x 16 = 6 oz.
Thus A : 9lb 6 oz
