Best Answer

100 oz = 6.25 lbs. One pound equals to 16 ounces and one ounce equals 0.06 of a pound. Also this relates only to solid (weight) ounces. There are two different kinds of ounces, ounces of weight/mass and ounces of volume (fluid). This can change when you are using the ounces to measure a non-liquid such as flour or sugar since the weight of dry items is not the same as their volume. An ounce of volume is called a "fluid ounce."

100 oz weighs then 5 lb. How? So there are 16 ounces in 1 pound. so what you want to do is convert one to the other. You could either multiply 5 by 16 or divide 100 by 16. 5*16=80 so there must be 80 oz in 5 lb. 80 oz < 100 oz. so 100 oz weighs more then 5 lb. That's how.

1 lb = 16 ounces
