Answer:

There is 32 ounces of trail mix are in a bag that weighs 0.908 kilograms.

Explanation:

Given : 1 pound = 0.454 kg and 1 pound = 16 ounces.

To find : How many ounces of trail mix are in a bag that weighs 0.908 kilograms?

Solution :

We know,

1 pound = 0.454 kg

i.e.
$1\text{ kg}=(1)/(0.454) \text{ pounds}$

So,
$0.908\text{ kg}=(0.908)/(0.454) \text{ pounds}$

$0.908\text{ kg}= 2 \text{ pounds}$

Now, 1 pound = 16 ounces

i.e.
$2 \text{ pounds}=16* 2\text{ ounce}$

$2 \text{ pounds}=32\text{ ounce}$

Which means
$0.908\text{ kg}=32\text{ ounce}$

Therefore, There is 32 ounces of trail mix are in a bag that weighs 0.908 kilograms.
