One bag of rice that weighs 4.5 pounds will have enough rice if a recipe calls for 60 ounces of rice. (1 pound = 16 ounces)

dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the bag of rice is 4.5 pounds, and there are 16 ounces per pound, multiply 16 x 4 = 64. Now what is half of 16? 8! So divide 5/8 = 0.625.

So in the end, yes the bag of rice will have enough rice. Here's my math:

16 x 4 = 64

5 / 8 = 0.625

So, you will have 64.625 ounces of rice which is plenty for your recipe!

I really hope this helps you!
