Answer 2

um... what are we trying to do? are we trying to add the 2 weights together?

Answer 3

yep:) sorry its not written better lol

Answer 4

all good, so there are 16 ounces (oz) in a pound (lb)
so easiest thing to do is convert everything into ounces first, then add together, then convert back at the end to pounds... with me so far?

Answer 5

yep got ya so far

Answer 6

sweet, 22 pound and 14 ounces is (22 x 16) + 14 = (352) + 14 = 366 ounces total

Answer 7

and 15 pounds 9 ounces = (15 x 16) + 9 = (240) + 9 = 249 ounces

Answer 8

so 366 + 249 = ...?@katlin95

Answer 9

615!

Answer 10

thanks you are the best!

Answer 11

perfect! now 615 / 16 = 38.44 pounds
so 38 pounds and (0.44*16) = (7 ounces)
so final answer would be 38 lb and 7 oz.
