Can someone please convert this and show the work for it? ?

Question

can you convert 5.3 grams into ounces ( i already know 0.19) show work please and if possible give me the formula and for this problem too 5.3 grams into pounds (1lb=454g) please show me the work! thank you :D

Answer 1

1 ounce = 28.3 grams.

5.3g * (1oz/28.3g) = 0.19oz



Set up the problem so the unit you don't want in the result will cancel out. So the equation for the second part will be:

5.3g * (1lb/454g) = 0.012lbs

Hope that helps.
