    A man weighing 120 pounds is carrying two bags of weight, 5 pounds 34 ounces and 3 pounds 12 ounces. The combined weight of man and the bags in ounces is ___________.

    1. 2094
    2. 1386
    3. 2000
    4. 2056

    hintHint:

    Convert pounds to ounces, then add all the weights to find out the combined weight.

    The correct answer is: 2094

      1pound = 16ounces
      Weight of man =120 pounds = 120 cross times space 16 space equals space 1920 o u n c e s
      weight of bag1 = 5pounds 34 ounces = ((5cross times 16 right parenthesis + 34) ounces = 114ounces
      weight of bag 2 = 3pounds 12 ounces = ((3 cross times 16 right parenthesis + 12)ounces = 60ounces
      combined weight = (1920 + 114 + 60)ounces = 2094 ounces
