Question

Jahari is making hamburgers for eight party guests. When Jahari weighs all of the hamburger meat, it weighs 5 pounds 8 ounces. Jahari wants to make hamburger patties that all weigh the same amount. About how many ounces does each hamburger patty weigh?

Answer 1

11 ounces for each hamburger patty

Explanation:

1 pound(lbs) = 16 ounces(oz)

Convert 5lbs into ounces

5x16 = 80oz

80 + 8 = 88 Add all the ounces together
