    8 ounces

    Step-by-step explanation:

    To solve the exercise the first thing is to find the equivalence between pound and ounce.

    We know that 1 pound equals 16 ounces. In this exercise we have 1/2 pounds, that is, half a pound or 0.5 pounds, therefore:

    1/2 pound * 16 ounces / 1 pound = 8 ounces

    Which means that he bought 8 ounces of grapes and not 5 how he had put it.
