Assuming you mean Avoirdupois units (as opposed to Troy), since there are 16 ounces in a pound, divide 50 by 16 to get 3 with a remainder of 2. That 2 is 2/16, or 1/8 of a pound. So the answer is 3 1/8 pounds.

50 oz (1 pound/16 oz)

= 3.125
=======

We know from experience that 0.125 = 1/8, so....,

3 and 1/8 pounds
