Question

1. 2 tons = ______ pounds
2. 2 pounds = ______ ounces
3. 48 ounces = ______ pounds
4. 10 pounds = ______ ounces
5. 16 ounces = ______ pound

Explanation:

Step1: Recall unit conversions

• 1 ton = 2000 pounds
• 1 pound = 16 ounces

Step2: Solve each problem

Problem 3: 2 tons to pounds

1 ton = 2000 pounds, so 2 tons = \(2 \times 2000 = 4000\) pounds.

Problem 3 (second, maybe typo, let's assume 2 pounds to ounces):

1 pound = 16 ounces, so 2 pounds = \(2 \times 16 = 32\) ounces.

Problem 5: 48 ounces to pounds

1 pound = 16 ounces, so pounds = \(48 \div 16 = 3\) pounds.

Problem 7: 10 pounds to ounces

1 pound = 16 ounces, so 10 pounds = \(10 \times 16 = 160\) ounces.

Problem 9: 16 ounces to pounds

1 pound = 16 ounces, so 16 ounces = \(16 \div 16 = 1\) pound.

Answer:

1. 4000
2. 32 (assuming 2 pounds to ounces)
3. 3
4. 160
5. 1
