Answer:

3 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

for this we need to understand the relation between pounds and ounces

the relation is for every pound there is 16 ounces, with this we can then use this info to solve the problem as shown

24oz + 1bl 8oz

reduce all units to the same level of measurement

24oz + 1bl 8oz

24oz + (16oz + 8oz)

then add like terms

24oz + (16oz + 8oz)

24oz + 24oz

and again...

24oz + 24oz

48oz

now all we do is divide the new total by 16 to get the poundage

48oz / 16

3bl

so the answer is 3 pounds

ill attach a pic of a kitchen measurements conversion chart for you to use in all your schooling ^^ hope this helps

NOTE: for pounds, ounces, milligrams etc.. you will look in the DRY MEASUREMENTS section
