help :( Which proportion would you set up to change 5 pounds to ounces? A. 1/16 = 5/x B. 1/8 = 5/x C. 1/8 = x/5 D. 1/16 = x/5

Answer 1

oh and here is a chart to help
1 ton = 2000 pounds
1 pound = 16 ounces

Answer 2

the lbs/oz ratio is constant, so (A)
or, since you want x, flip both fractions to get
x/5 = 16/1

Answer 3

Thanks! :)
