To find out how many pounds the suitcase weighs, we can use the given ratio of 16 ounces to 1 pound.
First, we divide the weight of the suitcase (176 ounces) by the number of ounces in one pound (16 ounces):
176 ounces / 16 ounces = 11
This tells us that the suitcase weighs 11 pounds.
To convert ounces to pounds using the given ratio of 16 ounces = 1 pound, you can divide the number of ounces by 16.
The suitcase weighs 176 ounces, so dividing by 16:
176 ounces / 16 = 11 pounds
Therefore, the suitcase weighs 11 pounds.
To find the number of grams equal to 2.75 kilograms, we need to multiply the number of kilograms by the conversion factor of 1000 grams per kilogram:

Therefore, 2.75 kilograms is equal to 2750 grams.
To find the number of pints equal to 10 liters, we need to multiply the number of liters by the conversion factor of 2.1 pints per liter:
