Hello!

The Correct Answer would be:

"1.25 Pounds"

Why? Well:

1 ounce (oz) is equal to 0.0625 pounds (lb).

1 oz = (1/16) lb = 0.0625 lb

The mass m in pounds (lb) is equal to the mass m in ounces (oz) divided by 16:

m(lb) = m(oz) / 16


So as Result, The Answer is 1.25 Pounds.


Hope this Helps! Have A Wonderful Day! :)
