6 7/8 oz=____ fl oz
this is hard to do.
oz is a unit of weight
fl oz is a unit of volume, equal to the space occupied by one oz of water.
So, an ounce of mercury is much smaller than an ounce of water.
To convert 6 7/8 ounces to fluid ounces, you need to multiply the whole number part (6) by the conversion factor of 1 fluid ounce = 1 ounce and then add the remaining fractional part (7/8). Here's the step-by-step calculation:
Step 1: Convert the whole number part:
6 ounces × 1 fluid ounce/ounce = 6 fluid ounces
Step 2: Convert the fractional part:
7/8 ounce × 1 fluid ounce/ounce = 7/8 fluid ounce
Step 3: Add the two results together:
6 fluid ounces + 7/8 fluid ounce = (6 × 8/8) + 7/8 = 48/8 + 7/8 = 55/8 fluid ounces
Therefore, 6 7/8 ounces is equal to 55/8 fluid ounces.
To convert 6 7/8 oz to fl oz, we need to know that fl oz stands for fluid ounces, which is a unit of volume commonly used in measuring liquids.
The first step is to convert the whole number part (6) to fluid ounces. Since there are 8 fluid ounces in 1 cup, we can say that 1 fluid ounce is equal to 1/8 of a cup. Therefore, we multiply the whole number part (6) by 8:
6 x 8 = 48 fluid ounces
Then, we need to convert the fraction part (7/8) to fluid ounces. Since there are 8 fluid ounces in 1 cup, we can divide 7 by 8 and multiply the result by 1 cup:
7/8 * 1 cup = 7/8 cup
Now, we add the fluid ounces from the whole number part and the fraction part:
48 fluid ounces + 7/8 cup
To combine the two units, we need to convert cups to fluid ounces. Since there are 8 fluid ounces in 1 cup, we multiply the fraction part (7/8) by 8:
7/8 * 8 = 7 fluid ounces
Finally, we add the fluid ounces from the whole number part and the fraction part:
48 fluid ounces + 7 fluid ounces = 55 fluid ounces
Therefore, 6 7/8 oz is equal to 55 fluid ounces.
