Answer
$\frac{3}{2}$ lb or 1.5 lb
Work Step by Step
24 oz = lb
Use a unit fraction with pounds (the unit for your answer) in the numerator, and ounces (the unit being changed) in the denominator. Because16 ounces (oz) = 1 pound (lb), the necessary unit fraction is
$\frac{1 lb}{16 oz}$
Multiply 24 oz times the unit fraction.
24 * $\frac{1 lb}{16 oz}$ = $\frac{3}{2}$lb = 1.5 lb
