Answer:

0.99 pounds

2,000 oz

0.423 cups

Explanation:

In order to convert this units we need to look up their equivalences.

1 g equals 0,0022 pounds approximately

Then we need to cross-multiply:

[tex]\frac{1 g}{0.0022 pounds} = \frac{450 g}{ Xpounds} \\x = \frac{450 g x 0.0022 pounds}{1 g}[/tex]

450 g equals 0.99 pounds approximately

We can do the same calculation for the other 2 ingredients

1 g equals 16 oz

Then (125 g x 16 oz) / 1 oz = 2,000 oz (or 500 4 oz)

1 cup equals 236.59 ml

Then (100 ml x 1 cup)/ 236.59 = 0.423 cups
