Either one, but make sure that both sides of the equation have the pounds on top or both sides have the pounds on bottom.
84/x = 16/1 (84 ounces over x pounds is equal to 16 ounces over 1 pound)
16x = 84
x = 84/16
x = 5.25 pounds
or
x/84 = 1/16 (x pounds over 84 ounces is equal to 1 pound over 16 ounces)
84 = 16x
x= 84/16
x = 5.25 pounds
