Part B Did Renee buy her mother enough coffee for the week? (1 point) Responses yes yes no

Answer 2

A pound is a larger unit than an ounce, so divide the number of pounds by 16 to find the number of ounces. Therefore, 2 pounds is equal to 32 ounces.

Answer 3

To determine if Renee bought her mother enough coffee for the week, we need to calculate the total amount of coffee her mother will use in a week.

Her mother uses 4 ounces per day, so in a week (7 days), she will use:
4 ounces/day * 7 days = 28 ounces/week

Since Renee bought 32 ounces of coffee for her mother, she did buy enough coffee for the week.

Response: yes
