Given data:

The given weight of 1 small cake is w=8.2 ounces.

The numbers of small cakes are n=8.

The total weight of the 8 small cakes is,

W=nxw

Substitute the given values in the above expression.

W=8(8.2 ounces)

=65..2 ounces

=65.2 (0.0625 pound)

=4.1 lb

Thus, the weight of 8 cakes is 4.1 lb, so B) option is correct.
