Solve:

10. 12 oranges weigh 2 1/4 pounds. How many ounces is this? __________

PLEASE HELP, I really don't get this.

Please Help!!!!

Thank You!!! :)
PS: For homework, we have to do p. 6 in our pink wk bk (every unit we do we get a wk bk) and these #'s she assign us to do tonight for homework.

What does "ib" mean in 4 and 5 and 7?

10.
1 pound = 16 ounces

Multiply 2 1/4 by 16.

That's weird..... we didn't learn this at class today .....!?!!??!?! :(

Since we are in our measurement unit today we learn about the ruler (review), like inches and cm and then we practice measuring it and we used our hands (trce it on paper) and measure it.

For #10 is it 32 1/4 (i multiply 16 by 2 and leave out the 1/4)

I don't know how am I going to do this. I'll try or something. Can you help me on the first 3 questions. Also is my answer for #10 is correct????

You can't leave out the 1/4

2 1/4 = 9/4

(9/4) * 16 = 144/4 = 36 ounces

I can't help you on the first 3 because ib is not any measurement.

Oh now I know how you got 9/4

you multiplied 2 x 4 then add 1 then = to 9 and then put the 4 on the bottom.

Right????

For the first 3 questions i'll think of something. I think is Ib.

Right.

The standard meaning for T is tablespoons. You can't convert tablespoons to pounds (lb). Tablespoons measure volume; pounds measure mass or weight.

I gave you the information to figure out # 5.

Ok.

Thank You!!!! :)
PS: mom helped me with the first 3 problems.

You're welcome.

How did you solve the first 3 problems?
What are the answers?

To solve these problems, you need to understand the unit conversions between pounds (ib), tons (T), and ounces (oz). Here are the conversion factors you will need:

1 ton (T) = 2000 pounds (ib)
1 pound (ib) = 16 ounces (oz)

Now let's solve each problem step by step:

4. To convert Tons (T) to pounds (ib), you need to multiply by 2000. So to find the number of pounds, you multiply 3 1/2 by 2000.

3 1/2 T = 3.5 T * 2000 ib = 7,000 pounds (ib)

Therefore, the answer is 7,000 pounds (ib).

5. To convert ounces (oz) to pounds (ib), you need to divide by 16. So to find the number of pounds, you divide 32 by 16.

32 oz = 32 oz / 16 = 2 pounds (ib)

Therefore, the answer is 2 pounds (ib).

7. To convert tons (T) to pounds (ib), you need to multiply by 2000. So to find the number of pounds, you multiply 7 by 2000.

7 T = 7 T * 2000 ib = 14,000 pounds (ib)

Therefore, the answer is 14,000 pounds (ib).

10. To solve this problem, you need to convert pounds (ib) to ounces (oz). Since there are 16 ounces in a pound, you need to multiply the number of pounds by 16.

12 oranges weigh 2 1/4 pounds. To find the number of ounces, you multiply 2 1/4 by 16.

2 1/4 ib = 2.25 ib * 16 oz/ib = 36 ounces (oz)

Therefore, the answer is 36 ounces (oz).

I hope this helps you understand how to solve these conversion problems. If you have any more questions, feel free to ask.
