1 answer

To convert pounds to ounces, you can use the conversion factor that 1 pound is equal to 16 ounces.

If Ravi buys x pounds of flour, the amount in ounces can be calculated using the formula:

\[ \text{ounces} = \text{pounds} \times 16 \]

However, since the specific number of pounds is not given in your question, I can only explain how to perform the conversion. If you provide the number of pounds Ravi buys, I can calculate the exact number of ounces for you.

For example:

  • If Ravi buys 1 pound: \( 1 \times 16 = 16 \) ounces
  • If he buys 1.375 pounds: \( 1.375 \times 16 = 22 \) ounces
  • If he buys 2 pounds: \( 2 \times 16 = 32 \) ounces
  • If he buys 2.75 pounds: \( 2.75 \times 16 = 44 \) ounces

Please provide the specific weight in pounds you have in mind for Ravi's flour purchase.
