Answer:

about 7 pounds

Explanation:

NOTE: 16 ounces equals a pound

so, we would do 15x7 which equals 105 ounces. then we would do 105/16 since 105 is the ounces in total and 16 ounces=1 pound. so our answer would equal to 6.5625. which rounded off would be about 7 pounds. I hope this is correct /helps!:)
