You work in a hardware store. You have two boxes of nails. The first box weighs 6 pounds, 7 ounces, and the second box weighs 2 pounds, 9 ounces. Which equation can be used to calculate how much the two boxes weigh in
ounces?
ounces = 16(6 + 2) + 16
ounces = 16(6 + 2)
ounces = 16(6 * 2) +16
ounces = 16(6 x 2)
ounces = 16(6-2)
