Question

How many more pounds does the heaviest soccer ball weigh than the heaviest baseball Round your

answer to the nearest hundredth.

Answer 1

39/64 pounds or 0.61 pounds.

Explanation:

According to the image, the heaviest soccer ball weights 15 ounces, and the heaviest baseball weights 5.25. So the difference is:

15 - 5.25 = 9.75 ounces

Since the question is how many more pounds, you have to convert ounces to pounds. 1 pound is equal to 16 ounces, so you have to devide the result by 16.

9.75 / 16 = 39/64 pounds or 0.61 pounds.
