Answer:

1 : 0.0625

Explanation:

We are asked to find the ratio of ounces to pounds in the weight of an object.

We know that 1 pound equals 16.

Ratio of pound to ounce= 1 : 16

To find the ratio of ounces to pounds, we will divide 1 by 16.


(1)/(16)=0.0625

Ratio of ounce to pound= 1 : 0.0625

Therefore, our required ratio is 1 : 0.0625.
