OpenStudy (anonymous):

16

OpenStudy (anonymous):

10 11 6 5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

there are 16 ounces in a pound as you said, so how many ounces in two pounds?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

32

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok good last job is to divide \(32\div3\) ignore the remainder since you can not make a fraction of a sandwich
