Since 1 pound equals 16 ounces, we can calculate the weight of a 4 pound object in ounces by multiplying 4 by 16
4 x 16= 64
Then we can add both weights together to find the total:
64+48=112
Together, both bags of groceries weigh 112 ounces.
======================================================
To find the weight of both bags in 𝘱𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘥𝘴, we can reverse it and instead of 𝘮𝘶𝘭𝘵𝘪𝘱𝘭𝘺𝘪𝘯𝘨 by 16 we can 𝘥𝘪𝘷𝘪𝘥𝘦 by 16.
48/16=3
so 4 +3 = 7
Together, both bags weigh 7 pounds.
