Answer:
1. Baseball - 0.3125 - 0.328125
2. Handball - 0.13125 - 0.14375
3. Bowling ball - 10 - 16
4. Soccer ball - 0.875 - 1
We are given the weight ranges of the sports balls in ounces.
It is required to convert these ranges into pounds.
As, we know that 1 ounce = 0.0625 pounds.
So, we get,
1. Baseball: It has weight range given by 5 - 5.25 ounces.
As 1 ounce = 0.0625 pounds, then 5 ounce = 0.3125 pounds and 5.25 ounce = 0.328125 pounds
Thus, in pounds, we get the range is 0.3125 - 0.328125.
2. Handball: It has weight range given by 2.1 - 2.3 ounces.
As 1 ounce = 0.0625 pounds, then 2.1 ounce = 0.13125 pounds and 2.3 ounce = 0.14375 pounds
Thus, in pounds, we get the range is 0.13125 - 0.14375.
3. Bowling ball: It has weight range given by 160- 256 ounces.
As 1 ounce = 0.0625 pounds, then 160 ounce = 10 pounds and 256 ounce = 16 pounds
Thus, in pounds, we get the range is 10 - 16.
4. Soccer ball: It has weight range given by 14 - 16 ounces.
As 1 ounce = 0.0625 pounds, then 14 ounce = 0.875 pounds and 16 ounce = 1 pound
Thus, in pounds, we get the range is 0.875 - 1.
