b) 15.25 ounces
c) 14.25 ounces
d) 9.08 ounces

Answer 1

To convert the weight from kilograms to ounces, first convert kilograms to pounds and then convert pounds to ounces. A bag weighing 0.908 kilograms contains 32 ounces of trail mix.

Step-by-step explanation:

To convert the weight from kilograms to ounces, we need to first convert the kilograms to pounds, and then convert the pounds to ounces. Given that 1 pound is equal to 0.4536 kg and 1 pound is equal to 16 ounces, we can set up the following conversions:

1. Convert kilograms to pounds: 0.908 kg * (1 lb / 0.4536 kg) = 2 lbs
2. Convert pounds to ounces: 2 lbs * 16 oz/lb = 32 oz

Therefore, a bag that weighs 0.908 kilograms contains 32 ounces of trail mix.
