Answer 1

(B) 32.75 lb.

Explanation:

We know that 1 pound (lb) is equal to 16 ounces (oz). Therefore, to convert 32 lb 12 oz to pounds, we need to first convert the 12 oz to pounds and then add it to 32 lb.

12 oz ÷ 16 oz/lb = 0.75 lb

So, 32 lb 12 oz is equal to:

32 lb + 0.75 lb = 32.75 lb

Therefore, the answer is (B) 32.75 lb.
