Question

How do I show work for this question

Answer 1

There are 16 ounces in a pound.  To show your work, you need to divide 96 by 16.  Then work the problem from there, showing your work.  96 divided by 16 is 6.  

Answer 2

Answer:

96 oz = 6 lb

Explanation:

Both units are a measure of mass. So the question expect you to derive what many pounds has the same value as 96 ounce.

But,

                  1 oz = 0.0625 lb

Let the value in pounds be represented by x, therefore;

                  96 oz = x lb

So that,

                    x = (0.0625 lb × 96 oz) ÷ 1 oz

                    x = 6 lb

Therefore, 96 ounces is the same as 6 pounds.
