What is fluid ounces?

" Fluid ounce is the unit to measure the volume of a liquid."

According to the question,

Average water present in male's body = 60%

Weight of a man = 160 pounds

Water in man's body = [tex]160[/tex] × [tex]\frac{60}{100}[/tex]

                                  = 96 pound

1 pound = 16 dry ounces

96 pound = 96 × 16

                 = 1536 dry ounces

1.04 dry ounces = 1 fluid ounce

⇒1536 dry ounces = [tex]\frac{1536}{1.04}[/tex]

                              = 1476.9 fluid ounce

                              = 1477 fluid ounce

Hence, 1477 fluid ounces of his weight is water.
