_________________________________________________
Step-by-step explanation:
_________________________________________________
Note the exact conversion: " 16 oz. = 1 lb. " .
→ {that is: " 16 ounces = 1 pound " .}.
_________________________________________________
30 oz. * ( 1 lb / 16 oz). = lbs. ;
= (30/2) / (16/2) lbs.
= (15 / 8) lbs. ;
_________________________________________________
1
8 ┌ 15
<u> - 8 </u>
7 ;
______________________
The answer is equal to: " 1 7/8 lbs. " .
→ (1 lb) + (7/8) (lb). ;
______________________
→ (7/8) lb. = how many "oz." ??
_______________________
Note the exact conversion: " 1 lb. = 16 oz. " .
_______________________
→ *
;
= oz. ;
→ The "8" cancels to a "1" ; and the "16" cancels to a "2" ;
→ {since: " {16 ÷ 8 = 2 } " ;
and: {since: " {8 ÷ 8 = 1 } " .
_______________________________________________
→ So we can rewrite as:
_______________________________________________
→ oz. ;
= { 7 * 2 } oz. ;
= 14 oz.
_______________________________________________
→ So:
_______________________________________________
→ " 30 oz. " = " (1 lb) + (7/8) lb. " ;
= " 1 lb. + 14 oz. " ;
= " 1 lb , 14 oz. " .
_______________________________________________
→ The answer is: " 1 lb , 14 oz. " .
_______________________________________________
Let us check our answer:
→ Does: " 1 lb. + 14 oz. = ? 30 oz. ? " ;
_______________________________________________
Note the exact conversion: " 1 lb. = 16 oz. " .
_______________________________________________
→ Does: " 16 oz. + 14 oz. = ? 30 oz. ?? " ;
_______________________________________________
₁
16 oz
<u>+ 14 oz </u>
30 oz.
_______________________________________________
→ Does: " 30 oz. = ? 30 oz. ? " ??? ; → Yes!
