There are 16 ounces (oz) in 1 pound (lb). This is the standard conversion used in the United States and other countries using the Imperial system. To convert pounds to ounces, you multiply the number of pounds by 16:

ounces=pounds×16\text{ounces}=\text{pounds}\times 16ounces=pounds×16

For example, 5 pounds equals 80 ounces (5 × 16 = 80). Conversely, to convert ounces to pounds, divide the number of ounces by 16:

pounds=ounces16\text{pounds}=\frac{\text{ounces}}{16}pounds=16ounces​

Thus, 32 ounces equals 2 pounds (32 ÷ 16 = 2)
