Ind asap part a: james bought a cake that weighs 3 and 1 over 4 pounds. how many ounces does the cake weigh? show your work [16 ounces = 1 pound] part b: a running tap dispenses 0.15 gallons of water every second. how many pints of water is dispensed after 20 seconds? show your work [1 gallon = 4 quarts, 1 quart = 2 pints]

3 1/4 lbs1 lb = 16 oz3 1/4 * 16 = 13/4 * 16 = 52 oz <==

0.15 gal every secondfor 20 seconds = 0.15(20) = 3 gal per 20 seconds.

if there is 2 pints in a qt, and 4 qts in a gal...then there is 8 pints in a gal.

3 gal = (8 * 3) = 24 pints dispensed in 20 sec
