Respuesta :
you can do ounces divided by 16 = pounds. It is a larger to smaller because there are 16 ounces in one pound because 16 ounces make up one pound
Answer:
It is required to write a problem which can be solved by comparing pounds and ounces.
Let us consider the problem.
Seth has 16 pounds of meat. How many ounces of meat will he have?
On solving, we get,
Number of pounds of meat Seth have = 16
As, 1 pound = 16 ounces
Then, 16 pound = 16 × 16 = 256 ounces.
Thus, Seth will have 256 ounces of meat.
Since, 'pounds' are used for large amount of the object. To focus on the amount which is moderately small, we change form larger unit to small unit.
