Question

Paul is buying packages of hot dogs for a camping trip. Each package is 30 oz. If he buys 4 packages, how many pounds of hot dogs is he buying

Answer 1

Hi! I can help you with that.

Each package weighs 30 oz. So, if Paul buys 4 packages, he will be buying:

30 oz x 4 = 120 oz

To convert this into pounds, we need to divide the number of ounces by 16 (as there are 16 ounces in 1 pound). So,

120 oz ÷ 16 = 7.5 pounds

Therefore, Paul will be buying 7.5 pounds of hot dogs for his camping trip.
