Answer:
Divide, 16.
Step-by-step explanation:
So, lets look at the unit scale.
For every 16 ounces, there are 1 pound.
To convert ounces to pounds, the number must be divide by 16, since there are 16 ounces in one pound.
The first fill in box answer is division.
Next we must ifnd the actual amount of pounds.
We know that the box weights 96 ounces.
Now lets divide this by ounces per pound, and see what we get:
96/16
=
6
So the box weighs 6 pounds.
This is the answer to the second fill in question.

<span>the line over the 28 means the 28 repeats forever.
1.282828.... and so on
let x be the rational number 1.28...
we can use this trick:
100*1.282828....= 128.282828... (the decimal 28 part repeats)
100x = 128.28...
next:
100x - x = 128.282828... - 1.282828...
the .282828... part will be subtracted away
99x = 127
divide both sides by 99 to get
x= 127/99</span>
14 apples because altogether the ratio adds up to 7 and 49/7=7 so we could rewrite the ratio as 2x:5x so x=7. there for 2x ,the number of apples is 14
