Best Answer

15.35 fluid ounces of water weigh one pound.

A fluid ounce of water weighs 1.0425 avoirdupois ounces (weight).

Or, 0.9592 av oz (weight) of water equals 1 fluid oz (volume).

Formulas:

1 pound (16 av oz) / 1.0425 av oz per fluid oz = 15.35 fluid oz.

1 pound (16 av oz) * .9592 fluid oz per av oz = 15.35 fluid oz. (rounded)

Check:

15.35 fluid oz * 1.0425 av oz per fluid oz = 16 (rounded) av oz (1 pound).

So... Techniccly 16 oz = 1 lb
