A container at a deli has exactly 5 pounds of cheese slices. Each cheese slice weighs exactly 2 ounces. How many total cheese slices are in the container?

Hey!
You would first convert the pounds to oz. One pound =16 oz.

That would be 80 oz. Then you would divide 80 by 2. That would equal 40
That would be 40 slices
Hope this helps! Make sure to check my calculations before you submit!
Godspeed
