A baker uses 4.3 pounds of flour daily.

How many ounces of flour will he use in three weeks? Use words, numbers, or pictures to explain your thinking. (1 lb = 16 oz)

Answer:

The final answer will be 1444.8 oz.

Explanation:

First you figure out how many oz are in 4.3 pounds. There are 68.8 oz. Then, since he uses 68.8 oz daily ( I suppose in a day) you multiply 68.8 x 7 and it gives you 481.6. Lastly, since we know the baker uses 481.6 in a week, you multiply that by 3 giving you 1444.8 oz. You're welcome and good luck <3.
