Part A:
A pound is a larger unit than an ounce, so multiply the number of pounds by 16 to find the number of ounces. Therefore, 2 pounds is equal to 32 ounces.
Part B:
To find out if Renee bought enough coffee for the week, we need to calculate how much coffee her mother will use in a week. Since her mother uses 4 ounces per day, she will use 4 x 7 = 28 ounces per week.
Since Renee bought 32 ounces of coffee, she did buy her mother enough coffee for a week. The answer is A. yes.

You're welcome! Let me know if you have any more questions.
Part A:
A pound is a larger unit than an ounce, so divide the number of pounds by 16 to find the number of ounces. Therefore, 2 pounds is equal to 32 ounces.
Part B:
To determine if Renee bought enough coffee for a week, we need to calculate how many ounces her mother would need for a week. Since her mother uses 4 ounces per day, multiplying this by 7 (number of days in a week) gives us a total of 28 ounces required for a week.
Comparing this to the amount Renee bought, which is 32 ounces, we can see that Renee did buy enough coffee for her mother for a week.
Therefore, the answer is:
A. yes
