They key point to note is that "of" in mathematics means "multiplied by." For example, 6 lots of 4 means 6x4. Thus "one eighth of half" can be written as 1/8 x1/2. Multiplying these two fractions together gives 1/16. Thus we need to know what weight is 1/16 of a pound. An ounce is 1/16 of a pound, thus the answer to the question is one ounce.
8 ounces or 1/2 a pound Half of 4 pounds = 2 pounds Quarter of 4 pounds = 1 pound Eighth of 4 pounds = half a pound. Half a pound weight is 8 ounces but half a British pound (money) is 50 pence.
No, they cannot.

When dividing imperial measurements, it can help to convert them first into smaller imperial measurements. In this case we can convert the pound into 16 ounces, as there are 16 ounces in a pound. Thus the question asks what is 1/8 x 1/2 x 16 oz. To multiply fractions, you multiply numerator and denominator. Thus the question simplifies to 16/16 oz, which =1. Therefore, one eighth of half a pound is 1 ounce.
1/2 pound = 226.796 grams.
That would be one-eighth.
one pound and a half
Half of a pound in ounces is 8 ounces because there are 16 ounces in a pound.
half full
No, they cannot.
If a bee hummingbird weighs 7 ounces, then it is approximately half a pound in weight. One pound is equivalent to 16 ounces. So this hummingbird would weigh just under half a pound.
usually about half a pound to a pound.
Weight cannot be measured in grams: it is a measure of mass. Half a pound weighs 2.22 Newtons.
