Henry has one bag of groceries that weighs 4 pounds. He has another bag of groceries that weighs 48 ounces. How many ounces do both grocery bags weigh altogether?
To find the total weight of both grocery bags, we need to convert the weight of the second bag from ounces to pounds and then add it to the weight of the first bag.
First, let's convert the weight of the second bag from ounces to pounds. We know that 16 ounces equal 1 pound.
48 ounces / 16 ounces per pound = 3 pounds
So, the weight of the second bag of groceries is 3 pounds.
Now, we can add the weight of both bags to find the total weight:
4 pounds + 3 pounds = 7 pounds
Therefore, both grocery bags weigh 7 pounds.
To find out how many ounces both grocery bags weigh altogether, we need to convert the weight of each bag to ounces and then add them together.
Bag 1: 4 pounds = 4 * 16 = 64 ounces
Bag 2: 48 ounces
Now, we can add the weights of both bags together:
64 ounces + 48 ounces = 112 ounces
Therefore, both grocery bags weigh 112 ounces altogether.
Since 1 pound equals 16 ounces, we can calculate the weight of a 4 pound object in ounces by multiplying 4 by 16
4 x 16= 64
Then we can add both weights together to find the total:
64+48=112
Together, both bags of groceries weigh 112 ounces.
======================================================
To find the weight of both bags in 𝘱𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘥𝘴, we can reverse it and instead of 𝘮𝘶𝘭𝘵𝘪𝘱𝘭𝘺𝘪𝘯𝘨 by 16 we can 𝘥𝘪𝘷𝘪𝘥𝘦 by 16.
48/16=3
so 4 +3 = 7
Together, both bags weigh 7 pounds.
