ounces because a leaf does not weigh that munch
Ounces
To convert ounces to pounds, you would divide the number of ounces by 16, since there are 16 ounces in 1 pound.
Ounces, unless it's a giant cookie.
A pound is 16 ounces, so they are equal.
16 ounces = 1 pound therefore 1 pound is bigger (heavier) than 15 ounces.
Since troy ounces are a different measure from standard ounces, you would need about 14.583 troy ounces to equal one pound (16 avoirdupois ounces).
One (avoirdupois) ounce (used to measure mass) would equal 1/16 of a pound. One (troy) ounce (also used to measure mass) would equal 1/12 of a pound. (Troy ounces are usually used for precious metals today.) Fluid ounces would depend upon the specific gravity of the liquid being measured.
In imperial measure there are 16 ounces in a pound
Fluid ounces are not to be confused with ounces (mass). Pound is a measure of weight or mass. 1 ounce (mass) is approximately 28.35 grams.Fluid ounces are a volume measure, equal to approximately 29.57 milliliters.The only relation between mass and volume, would be if you have a specific substance of known density.
1/2 lb. 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."
16 ounces equal one pound, so you would use pounds to measure a weight that equals 16 ounces.
Ounces is for weight. There are 16 ounces in a pound. Fluid ounces, however, measure capacity.
16 oz. There are 16 dry ounces to the pound. Don't confuse the dry ounce -- a measure of weight -- with the fluid ounce, which is a measure of volume. (There are 16 fluid ounces to the pint.)
No, a pound is 16 ounces. So half a pound would be 8 ounces.
A pound of gold weighs 14.583 troy ounces. This answer is correct only if you mean an avoirdupois pound. A troy pound (used for precious metals) is 12 troy ounces. If you ask how many troy ounces are in a pound, you would normally mean a troy pound unless you specify another type of measure - there are several different difinitions for the measure "pound".
Those units of measure do not convert.
you cannot compare weight to volume. if you would like to know the measure by ounces, then i can help. one pound equals 16 ounces in weight, and 16 ounces equals two cups by dry or liquid measure. (because one cup always equals 8 oz.) do the math.
