To convert from pound to ounces, we should know that:

1 pound = 16 ounces

We have given 92 1/2 pounds

∴ 92 1/2 pounds = 92 1/2 * 16 = 1,480 ounces

So, the answer of the question is ⇒ Yes, 92 1/2 pounds is equivalent to 1,480 ounces

Hi there!

Since

16 ounces = 1 pound,

We should divide 1480 by 16 and see if it equals 92.5.

1480 ÷ 16 = 92.5
92.5 = 92.5

Answer:
Yes.

Hope this helps!
