Answer:

James will need to buy 3 boxes of crackers for the party.

Step-by-step explanation:

remember: 16oz=1 pound

If James needs 3 pounds of crackers, and each box is 20oz, that means each box is a little over 1 pound. (1.25 pounds to be exact). So, we know that he needs to buy 3 boxes of crackers. This is because 20×3=60 ounces which is 3.75 pounds. Meaning, 3 boxes is the correct answer since we can't cut a box in half.

hope this helps!

Answer:

3 boxes

Step-by-step explanation:

First, calculate how many oz in one pound: 16 oz = 1 pound

Now we know that our situation includes smaller to larger.

Since we are going smaller to larger, we need to multiply.

You should multiply 20 x 3 = 60 oz from what I learned.

60 oz = 3.75 pounds. In another situation you would round, but who cares about rounding. Your answer is 99.100% correct

If this was wrong, I'm sorry. The way I learned is smaller to larger: multiply; larger to smaller: divide.

Hopefully, this was right!
