Question

How many pounds does a 2,500-gram baby weigh, to the nearest tenth of a pound? [16 ounces = 1 pound][28.4 grams ≈ 1 ounce]

Answer 1

Answer: The baby would weigh approximately 5.5 pounds

Explanation:

2,500/28.4 ≈ 88.02 ounces

88.02/16 ≈ 5.501

To the nearest tenth, the answer would be 5.5 pounds (correct me if I'm wrong.)
