Explanation:

Problem 9

Step1: Convert pounds to ounces

Since 1 pound = 16 ounces, $6 \times 16 = 96$ ounces

Step2: Add remaining ounces

$96 + 5 = 101$ ounces

Step1: Total ounces in 3 cases

3 cases $\times 12$ cans/case $\times 16$ oz/can = $3 \times 12 \times 16 = 576$ ounces

Step2: Calculate sugar cups

$\frac{576}{24} = 24$ cups

Step1: Convert hour to seconds

1 hour = 3600 seconds

Step2: Find the fraction

$\frac{1350}{3600} = \frac{3}{8}$
