Question

use the given equivalents, along with dimensional analysis, to convert the given unit to the unit indicated.
35 lb to g

16 oz = 1 lb
2000 lb = 1 t
1 oz ≈ 28 g
1 lb ≈ 0.45 kg
1 t ≈ 0.9 t

35 lb=□ g

Explanation:

Step1: Convert lb to oz

We know that \( 1\ \text{lb} = 16\ \text{oz} \), so for \( 35\ \text{lb} \), the number of ounces is \( 35\times16 \) oz.
\( 35\times16 = 560 \)

Step2: Convert oz to g

We know that \( 1\ \text{oz} \approx 28\ \text{g} \), so we multiply the number of ounces by 28 to get grams.
\( 560\times28 = 15680 \)

Answer:

\( 35\ \text{lb} = \boxed{15680}\ \text{g} \)
