Question

Answer 1

Answer:

48 Ounces or 3 Pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

If each ounce of pie is 8 ounces, and we have 6 slices of pie we must multiply.

8 ounces of pie × 6 slices = 48 ounces.

We could also add.

                                                 6 slices

                                                       ^

(8 ounces + 8 ounces + 8 ounces +8 ounces +8 ounces +8 ounces) = 48 ounces

There are 16 ounces in a pound so 48 ÷ 16 = 3 pounds
