Barry buys 6 loaves of bread. Each loaf weighs 1 1 4 pounds. What is the total weight of the bread in pounds? in ounces? A. 6 1 4 pounds; 100 ounces B. 7 1 2 pounds; 112 ounces C. 7 1 2 pounds; 120 ounces D. 9 pounds; 144 ounces

C. 7 1/2 pounds; 120 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

I'll assume you wanted to write each loaf weighs 1 and 1/4 (1.25) pounds and not 114 pounds ... since that makes sense considering the choices for answer.

So, to get the total weight of the 6 loafs, we multiply by 6 the weight of one ...

TP = 6 * 1.25 = 7.5 or 7 1/2 pounds

To get that in ounces, we just have to remember there are 16 ounces per pound ... so

TO = 7.5 lbs * 16 ounces/lbs = 120 ounces
