To find the number of ounces each person would get, you will convert the 66 pounds of ice cream to ounces. 1 pound = 8 fl ounces, so 66 pounds = 528 ounces (66 x 8)

Take the total number of ounces and divide it between the 96 people (8 x 12).

528/96 = 5.5 fl ounces

Each person will get 5.5 fl ounces of ice cream.
