    10 pounds

    Step-by-step explanation:

    1 box = 2.5 ounces

    64 boxes = (64*2.5) ounces

    =160 ounces

    though, 1 ounce = 0.0625 pounds

    therefore 160 ounces = (160*0.0625) pounds

    = 10 pounds.

    The case is ten pounds.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    There are 16 ounces in a pound. Using this information, you can multiply the ounces by the 64 boxes. Then divide the product by 16. You should be left with 10 pounds.
