Ok, 1 football equals 13 ounces. 10 footballs would equal 130 ounces (right?). In order to find out how many pounds 10 footballs equal, would you divide 130 divided by 16?
yes
Ok i did that and I got 8.135. I'm guessing that's the answer?
yes , if you meant to type 8.125
or you could say 8 lbs and 2 ounces
.125 = 1/8
and 1/8 of 16 = 2
To find out how many pounds 10 footballs would equal, you will need to convert the 130 ounces to pounds.
To convert ounces to pounds, you divide the number of ounces by the conversion factor of 16.
In this case, 130 ounces divided by 16 equals 8.125 pounds. Therefore, 10 footballs would equal approximately 8.125 pounds, assuming each football weighs 13 ounces.
