Answer: 5 pounds

Step-by-step explanation: "Oz" is the abbreviation for ounces and "lb" is the abbreviation for pounds.

To convert 72 ounces into pounds, first find the conversion factor for ounces and pounds.

Conversion factor ⇒ 16 ounces = 1 pound

<em />

Next, notice that we are going from a smaller unit "ounces" to a larger unit "pounds" and when we go from a smaller unit to a larger unit we divide.

So here, we will divide 72 ounces by the conversion factor which is 16.

72 ÷ 16 = 5

Therefore, <em>72 ounces = 5 pounds</em>.

Whats the answer to: 11x/18

Ganezh [65]

The value of that fraction depends on the value of 'x'. Whatever 'x' happens
to be at the moment, the fraction is equal to about 61.1% of it. And if 'x' ever
changes, then the value of the fraction also changes, immediately.

Step-by-step explanation:

Statement. Reason

→ 9(x-6)+41 = 75. Transposing the like terms.

→ 9(x-6) = 75 - 41 Performing subtraction of the term in RHS

→ 9(x-6) = 34 Performing multiplication in LHS.

→ 9x - 54 = 34 Distributive property

→ 9x = 34 + 54 Performing addition of the term in RHS.

→ 9x = 88. Now, transpose 9 from LHS to RHS , it's arthmetic operator will get changed.

→ x = 88/9
