My math assignment is conversion with weight.
1. 6 T= lb
2. 18lbs= oz
3. 3,200 oz= lb
4. 12T= lb
5. 9lb= oz
6. 7lb= oz
7. 100lb= oz
8. 60,000= T
I need major help on the above. I do not know where to begin and need to know if there is some sort of chart I can use as well
Please help

I am confused on how to use the chart that you sent
What is T in those questions?
Look on the chart until you find the measurement you need. For instance, a couple of places, it shows that 16 ounces = 1 pound.
For # 2 -- 18 * 16 = _______ ounces
Sure, I can help you with your math assignment on conversions with weight. To solve these problems, you need to know the conversion factors for converting between different units of weight, such as tons (T), pounds (lbs), and ounces (oz). Here are the conversion factors you can use:
1 ton (T) = 2000 pounds (lbs)
1 pound (lb) = 16 ounces (oz)
To solve each problem, you need to set up a conversion equation and then solve it. Here's how you can approach each problem individually:
1. 6 T = ___ lb
To convert tons to pounds, multiply the given value by the conversion factor for tons to pounds:
6 T * 2000 lb/T = 12,000 lb
2. 18 lb = ___ oz
To convert pounds to ounces, multiply the given value by the conversion factor for pounds to ounces:
18 lb * 16 oz/lb = 288 oz
3. 3,200 oz = ___ lb
To convert ounces to pounds, divide the given value by the conversion factor for ounces to pounds:
3,200 oz / 16 oz/lb = 200 lb
4. 12 T = ___ lb
Using the conversion factor for tons to pounds:
12 T * 2000 lb/T = 24,000 lb
5. 9 lb = ___ oz
Using the conversion factor for pounds to ounces:
9 lb * 16 oz/lb = 144 oz
6. 7 lb = ___ oz
Using the conversion factor for pounds to ounces:
7 lb * 16 oz/lb = 112 oz
7. 100 lb = ___ oz
Using the conversion factor for pounds to ounces:
100 lb * 16 oz/lb = 1600 oz
8. 60,000 = ___ T
To convert pounds to tons, divide the given value by the conversion factor for pounds to tons:
60,000 lb / 2000 lb/T = 30 T
As for a conversion chart, you can easily create your own. Write down the conversion factors mentioned above (1 T = 2000 lb and 1 lb = 16 oz) as a reference to use when solving the problems. You can also use online resources or your textbook for additional conversion charts and tables.
Remember to always label your answers correctly with the appropriate units to ensure accuracy.
I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any further questions.
