Question

3 pounds fruit salad = how many ounces

Answer 1

48 ounces of fruit salad.

Answer 2

Answer: 48 ounces

Step-by-step explanation: To convert 3 pounds into ounces, we first need to identify the conversion factor for pounds and ounces, which is shown below.

16 ounces = 1 pound

We are going from a larger unit, pounds, to a smaller unit, ounces.

When we go from a larger unit to a smaller unit, we multiply.

So here, we multiply 3 lb x 16 which gives us 48 ounces.

Note that I multiplied by the conversion factor.

This means that the fruit salad is 48 ounces.
