What is the weight difference between 68 lbs and 12 lbs 8 ounces?
401563
You can write 68 lbs as 67 lbs 16 ounces since there are 16 ounces in 1 lb.\n67 lbs - 12 lbs = 55 lbs\n16 ounces - 8 ounces = 8 ounces\nThus, the answer is 55 lbs 8 ounces.

16 oz per pound - 7.35 x 16  = 117.60 per pound\n\n117.60 x 78 = 9, 172.80

Avoirdupois = 16\nTroy = 12\n\nIf you are talking 'avoirdupois' which is the normal everyday weight measurement we use then there are 16 ounces to a pound.\n\nHowever, there are 12 troy ounces to a troy pound. The troy system is usually applicable when weighing precious metals, black powder, and gemstones.

My 8 year old son weighs about 50lbs, and is average.

I think this is meant to be a question about weighing 6 oz of sweets, using a scale pan with weights of 1, 5, 7 and 11 ounces which can be placed in either pan of the scales. The scales are not calibrated but simply two pans which will either tip if unequal weights are in the two pans or remain level if equal weights are in the two pans.\n\nAssuming I am correct that that is the question we are meant to answer.\n\nThere are two answers. Put the 11 oz weight on one pan and the 5 oz weight on the other pan. Add sweets to the lighter pan, till the two pans balance.\n\nOR do the same with the 1 oz and 7 oz weights.

16 oz in a pound and 8 pints in a gallon. I have to draw a picture I use with my 3rd grade class to help me remember...let me explain it. You start by drawing a large G (for gallon) inside the G you draw four big Q's for quarts. Inside each Q you draw 2 P's for pints, and finally in each P you draw 2 c's for cups, and this tells you all the conversions....16 cups in a gallon, 8 pints in a gallon, 4 quarts, and so on. I hope that helps, it helped me!

There are 16 oz in a pound. If you have 2 pounds, you have 32 ounces of meat.

pounds multiplied by 16 = ounces\n\n16 ounces = one pound

1 pound = 16 oz.\n1 cup = 8 oz.\n\n\n1/10 (16oz) divided by 8 oz = .2 cups or 1/5 cup.

What?!? please rephrase your question. \n\nif you want to know what 8/12 is and its simplest(?) form is then you just find the common denominator of both the numerator and the denominator.\n\nif you want to be systematic and not guess around, you convert both the numerator and the denominator into their product form(? did i say that right?)\n\nso 8 is 2 * 2 * 2 and 12 is 2 * 2 * 3.\n\nand since you are dividing in a fraction, you can cancel out the common numbers (?cant remember the term) from the numerator (the top number) and the denominator (the bottom number).\n\nso you end up with 2/3.\n\nif you wanted to know what fraction the person who drinks 12 oz of water a day more than the average guy then you do this:\n\n12 / 8 is the fraction for the 12 oz guy\n8 / 8 for the average guy (converted from 1-> 1/1 -> 1*8/1*8)\n(12 / 8) - (8 / 8) is 4 / 8. or 1 / 2 more than average.

Troy weight was so named from Troyes in France where it was first adopted in Europe. The Troy Ounce is supposed to have been brought from Cairo during the crusades. One Troy ounce is about 10% heavier than the common Avoirdupois ounce. Avoirdupois is the system of weights using the pound of 16 ounces. Troy weight is the system of weights used for Gold, Silver and Jewels with twelve ounces to the pound.

1.  Weigh all 12 balls together.\n2.  Weight 11 balls.\n3.  Remove a ball from the 11 and weigh the 10.\n\nNow for some calculation.\nweights 1,2,3 --> w1, w2, w3\n\nif w1-w2 = w2-w3 --> you have the weight of a normal ball.  To find the weight of the odd ball, multiply the normal weight by 11 and subtract from the weight of 12 balls.\n\nif w1-w2 does not equal w2-w3 -->  one of the two differences is the weight of the odd ball.  You have to assume one of these differences is the weight of a normal ball and analyze.\n  \nTake the larger difference and multiply by 11.  If the difference between this value and the combined weight is equivalent to the one of the differences from the previous paragraph, then the weight of the oddball is the "smaller difference" we havent analyzed yet.  The oddball is thus lighter than the rest.  \n\nIf the subtraction from the previous step isn't equivalent to the smaller difference, then the weight of the oddball is the one you've assumed to be the normal ball.  The oddball is thus heavier than the rest.\n\nOriginal solution, may be kind of complicated, but hey it's orginal, LOL\n\nTo answer below: How would that work if the odd ball is LIGHTER not heavier?

1 kg = 2.2 lb. Weight in kg x 2.2 lb/1kg gives the answer in pounds. If you need ounces, then just multiply by 16 ounces/1 lb.
