Hey there,
So we know that 16oz=1lb
So know we need to set up a ratio that will give us the right answer:
[tex] \frac{16}{1} [/tex] = [tex] \frac{x}{10} [/tex]
Now we have to cross multiply:
16 * 10= 160
now we have to divide it by the left over coefficient:
160/1= 160
This means that the baby weighs 160oz or in other words 10lbs
I hope this helps
