Fluid ounces are not to be confused with ounces (mass). Pound is a measure of weight or mass. 1 ounce (mass) is approximately 28.35 grams.
Fluid ounces are a volume measure, equal to approximately 29.57 milliliters.
The only relation between mass and volume, would be if you have a specific substance of known density.
Those units of measure do not convert.

In a pound of what? Fluid ounces is a measure of volume. Pound is a measure of weight. The number of fluid ounces in a pound is going to depend on the density of the substance in question. A pound of mercury is much smaller in volume (and thus has fewer fluid ounces) than a pound of water. If we are speaking of water, or something equivalent, 1 ounce of water by weight fills up one fluid ounce of space, so a pound of water (16 oz) is 16 fluid ounces, or 1 pint.
