Yes it is. 1 pound is 16 ounces. So 4 pounds is only 64 ounces.

No 4 lb = 64 oz. One pound equals to 16 ounces and one ounce equals 0.06 of a pound. Also this relates only to solid (weight) ounces. There are two different kinds of ounces, ounces of weight/mass and ounces of volume (fluid). This can change when you are using the ounces to measure a non-liquid such as flour or sugar since the weight of dry items is not the same as their volume. An ounce of volume is called a "fluid ounce."

56 ounces refers to a fluid measurement, while pounds refers to dry measurement.

Because we think in dry measurements, 4 pounds seems heavier. But, 56 ounces is equal to 4 cups of fluid. Water, does have weight, and thus is the heavier amount.

In order to change these units we need to know a few things.

First what a pound is; there are 16 ounces in a pound. So take the ounces you have and divide by what your looking for

so 56/16=3.5

What this tells us is they are the same thing, 56 ounces is 3.5 pounds.
same

3.5 x 16 = 56
