Answer: 34.2 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

First, convert 15 4/5 into an improper fraction. You should get 79/5. Then, convert 50 into a fraction that has a denominator of 5. Right now, 50= 50/1 so just multiply the top and bottom by 5 to make it 250/5. Then, subtract 79/5 from 250/5. You should get 171/5. Lastly, simplify. You should get 34.2 pounds as your final answer. Hope this helps!
