4 pounds and 11 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 16 ounces in a pound.

First, convert everything into ounces, to make it easier. A sack of potatoes weighs 233 ounces. Wendy makes potato salad, and now the sack weighs 158 ounces.

Subtract the smaller weight from the larger weight, to find the difference:

233 ounces - 158 ounces = 75 ounces.

This means that Wendy used 75 ounces worth of potatoes in her salad.

In pounds, she used 4 pounds and 11 ounces worth of potatoes.

10 * 563.67 = 5636.7
