Answer:

64,000 oz

Explanation:

A demolition (wrecking) ball is a relatively large dense mass, often spherical, typically swung from a crane, used to demolish buildings or other structures.

We assume you want to convert from a US short ton (2000 pounds) to Avoirdupois ounces (16 ounces per pound).

Then your ball's weight is ...

(2 tons)(2000 lb/ton)(16 oz/lb) = 64,000 oz
