How many grams is two pounds ten ounces?
To solve this simple problem you have to know some things first. What do you need to know? Well, how many ounces in a pound, for starters. There are 16 dry ounces to the pound. Next you have to know what two tenths means. You can think of it as a decimal -- 0.2 -- or you can think of it as a standard fraction: 2/10, which reduced to 1/5. (Which means you have to know how to reduce.) Next you have to know what to do with those numbers. In this case, multiply the weight in pounds by the number of ounces in a pound: 0.2 pounds x 16 ounces per pound = 3.2 ounces. (Which means you have to know how to multiply decimals.) You could have done this, instead: (1/5) x 16 = 16/5 = 3.2.

What is heaviest 3 ounces of iron on earth 3 pounds of pencils on the moon or 1 out of 2000 of a ton of coffee on earth?
It's a trick question, three ounces is three ounces, and 1 pound is a pound. I would believe you would know anything weighs less on the moon, so that would leave the Iron and the Coffee. I know you would think that 3 ounces of iron would weigh out 1 pound of coffee (1/2000 tons = 1 pound), but the weight measurements are still the same never the less. 1 pound of coffee feels like 1 pound, and 3 ounces of Iron feels like 3 ounces. 1/2000 of coffee is the greatest weight.
