Question

Sally made a chicken dish for dinner. She added a 10-ounce package of vegetables and a 14-ounce package of rice to 40 ounces of chicken. What was the total weight of the chicken dish in pounds?

Answer 1

4 ponds was the total weight of the chicken dish

Answer 2

so first add them al together
10+14+40=64

16 ounces=1 pound
1pound/16ounce=1 because they are equal

so then multiply 64 ounce by 1 or 1pound/16ounce to cancel units and get
64 pound/16=4 pound


4 pounds total
