Answer:

7.75

Step-by-step explanation:

We know (by definition) that: 1⁢oz = 0.0625⁢lb

We can set up a proportion to solve for the number of pounds.

1⁢oz124⁢oz =   0.0625⁢lbx⁢lb

Now, we cross multiply to solve for our unknown x:

x ⁢ lb =   124⁢oz1⁢oz * 0.0625 ⁢ lb → x ⁢ lb = 7.75 ⁢ lb

Conclusion: 124 ⁢ oz = 7.75 ⁢ lb
