To find the weight of the pan, we need to first determine the weight of one egg.
18 ounces for 4 eggs means each egg is 18/4 = 4.5 ounces.
24 ounces for 8 eggs means each egg is 24/8 = 3 ounces.
Now, we can find the weight of the pan by subtracting the weight of the eggs from the total weight of the pan:
Total weight of the pan - Total weight of the eggs = Weight of the pan
Weight of the pan - 4.5 ounces x 4 eggs = 18 ounces
Weight of the pan - 18 ounces = 18 ounces
Weight of the pan = 18 ounces + 18 ounces
Weight of the pan = 36 ounces
Therefore, the weight of the pan is 36 ounces.
A pan with four eggs weighs 18 ounces. A pan with eight eggs weighs 24 ounces.
