unit symbol fact
ounce oz
pound lb 1 lb = 16 oz
ton t 1 t = 2000 lb
fill in the blanks.
18,000 lb = \square t
64 oz = \square lb

Explanation:

Step1: Convert pounds to tons

We know that \(1\ T = 2000\ lb\), so to convert pounds to tons, we divide the number of pounds by 2000. For \(18000\ lb\), the calculation is \(18000\div2000\).
\(18000\div2000 = 9\)

Step2: Convert ounces to pounds

We know that \(1\ lb = 16\ oz\), so to convert ounces to pounds, we divide the number of ounces by 16. For \(64\ oz\), the calculation is \(64\div16\).
\(64\div16 = 4\)

Answer:

\(18000\ lb=\boxed{9}\ T\)
\(64\ oz=\boxed{4}\ lb\)
