A. 6 lb.
B. 6 lb., 4 oz.
C. 96 oz.
D. 98 oz.

Answer :

Answer:

6 lb 4 oz

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, 1 lb = 16 oz,

Here, the given phrase,

The sum of 36 ounces and 4 pounds,

[tex]= 36\text{ oz}+4\text{ lb}[/tex]

[tex]=36\text{ oz}+64\text{ lb}[/tex]

[tex]=100\text{ oz}[/tex]

Again,

1 oz = 1/16 lb,

[tex]100\text{ oz}=\frac{100}{16}=6.25\text{ lb} = 6\text{ lb}+0.25\text{ lb}=6\text{ lb }4\text{ oz}[/tex]

Hence, The sum of 36 ounces and 4 pounds is 6 lb 4 oz

Second option is correct.
