If you want 2 1/2 pounds of cream cheese, you want 5 packages of cream cheese.I assume that "2 12 pounds" means 2 1/2 pounds, but if you wanted a different amount, you can do one of the following calculations:a) Multiply the number of pounds by 2 (which is the same as dividing by the 1/2 lb weight of the package of cream cheese) to determine the number of packages;orb) Convert the number of pounds to ounces by multiplying by 16, then dividing that amount by 8 (the weight of the package of cream cheese in ounces) to determine the number of packages.

How much is 9 ounces of cream cheese?

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." That all being said, cream cheese is measured by mass (weight), so 8 ounces of cream cheese is half a pound. You will need two 8 ounce packages.
