I approach this like so: How many _____ equals ____ ______? Or rewritten as, _____ ounces = 48 grams Find a conversion between grams and ounces (or multiple conversions). There are 454 grams in 1 pound (or more accurately 453.59237 grams). And there are 16 ounces in 1 pound. So all we do is arrange these conversions so the units will cancel leaving ounces. _____ ounces = 48 grams * (1 pound / 453.59237 grams) * (16 ounces / 1 pound) Multiply everything on top and divide everything on bottom like so: (48 * 1 * 16) / (453.59237 * 1) = 768 / 453.59237 = 1.6931502 ounces This method may be overkill for this problem, but it becomes very helpful when you are doing complicated conversions.
There are 453.59237 grams in one pound. Therefore to get amount of pounds in grams, value in grams has to be divided by amount of grams in one pound: 28 grams = [grams] / 453.59237 = 28 / 453.59237 = 0.0617 pounds
