Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Total weight of all of the filled jars with jam = 211.2 ounces

When empty, each jar weighs 1.2 ounces

Total weight of 2 dozens of empty jar = 24 × 1.2 ounces

= 28.8 ounces

Total weight of jam in 2 dozens jar = Total weight of all of the filled jars with jam - Total weight of 2 dozens of empty jar

= 211.2 ounces - 28.8 ounces

= 182.4 ounces

The weight of jam in one jar = 182.4 ounces / 24 jars

= 7.6 ounces

The weight of jam in one jar = 7.6 ounces
