a koala wieghs 20pounds in her pouch she carries her Joey that wieghs 20 ounces . what is the combined wieght of the adult koala and her joey in ounces ?
1 pound = 16 ounces
so if a koala weighs 20 pounds and we want to find it in ounces, we go
20*16=320 ounces
Since we already know that the joey weighs 20 ounces and we need to find
the combined weight of the adult koala and her joey, we go
320+20=340 ounces
Does that help?

what is the anwser to this question
It is 340 ounces.
To find the combined weight of the adult koala and her joey in ounces, we need to convert the weight of the adult koala from pounds to ounces and then add it to the weight of the joey.
First, let's convert the weight of the adult koala from pounds to ounces. Since there are 16 ounces in a pound, we can multiply the weight of the adult koala by 16:
Adult koala weight in ounces = 20 pounds * 16 ounces/pound
Calculating this:
Adult koala weight in ounces = 320 ounces
Now, we can add the weight of the adult koala and the weight of the joey:
Combined weight = Adult koala weight in ounces + Joey weight in ounces
Combined weight = 320 ounces + 20 ounces
Calculating this:
Combined weight = 340 ounces
Therefore, the combined weight of the adult koala and her joey is 340 ounces.
