Answer: 180.8 ounces

Explanation: To convert 11.3 pounds to ounces, first find the conversion factor for pounds and ounces.

Conversion factor → 16 ounces = 1 pound

Next, notice that we are going from a larger unit "pounds" to a smaller unit "ounces." When we go from a larger unit to a smaller unit we multiply.

Larger ⇒ smaller multiply

In this case, we multiply 11.3 pounds by our conversion factor which is 16 ounces.

11.3 × 16 = 180.8 oz.

This means that 11.3 pounds is equal to 180.8 ounces.
