Answer 2

Option b. 1,125 lb

Explanation:

A container contains 18,000 ounces ( oz ) of beans.

We have to convert ounces to pounds.

As we know 1 pound = 16 ounces

To convert ounces to pounds we have to divide 18,000 ounces to 16.

18,000 ounces = 18000 ÷ 16

= 1,125 lb

Container contains 1,125 pounds of beans.
