Respuesta :
First you have to convert lbs to ounces and feet to inches.
1 lb = 16 ounces....so 10 lbs is 160 ounces.
1 foot is 12 inches.
now make a proportion....
160/12 = x/4 (160 ounces to 12 inches = x ounces to 4 inches)
(160)(x) = (12)(4) (cross multiply)
Can you solve for x ? (x will be your answer)
The number of ounces will 4 inches weigh is 53.33 oz.
Given that,
- The weight of the chain is 10 pounds per foot.
We know that
- 1 foot = 12 inches.
- 1 pound = 16 ounces.
Now based on this,
[tex]= 4 \ inches \frac{1}{12} \times \frac{foot}{inches} \times 10 \times \frac{pound}{foot} \times 16 \times \frac{pound}{foot} \\\\= \frac{4\times10\times16}{12}[/tex]
= 53.33 oz
Therefore we can conclude that the number of ounces will 4 inches weigh is 53.33 oz.
