Question

Marilyn ate 320 pounds of vegetables last year. How many ounces did she eat per month? Round to the nearest tenth

Answer 1

Since there are 12 months in a year, you should divide. 320 divided by 12, is about 26.7 pounds per year. If you convert 26.7 pounds to ounces, you multiply 26.7 by 16 because there are 16 ounces per pound. Therefore, Marilyn ate 427.2 ounces of vegetables per year.
