Answer 2

For this case we must perform a conversion. By definition we have to:

1 pound equals 16 ounces.

Thus, making a rule of three we have:

1lb -------------> 16oz

x ----------------> 20oz

Where "x" represents the amount of pounds equivalent to 20 ounces.

$x = \frac {20 * 1} {16}\\x = 1.25$

Finally we have 20 ounces equal to 1.25 pounds.

Answer:

20 ounces equals 1.25 pounds.
