A can of nuts weighs 1 pound, 1 ounce. The empty can weighs 3 ounces. If you pour out half the nuts into a bowl, how many ounces of nuts are in the bowl?

Answer:

7 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 16 ounces in one pound, so there are 17 ounces for the can of nuts.

Since the empty can weighs 3 ounces, you can subtract 17-3, which equals 14, to get the weight of the nuts alone.

Then, you divide 14 by 2, and you get 7.
