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

Part B:
To find out if Renee bought enough coffee for the week, we need to calculate how much coffee her mother will use in a week. Since her mother uses 4 ounces per day, she will use 4 x 7 = 28 ounces per week.

Since Renee bought 32 ounces of coffee, she did buy her mother enough coffee for a week. The answer is A. yes.
