Best Answer

2 1/2 pounds is 40 ounces (avoirdupois).

A pound is 16 ounces and 16 x 2.5 = 40
16 oz is a pound, so 2.5 pounds is 32+8=40 oz. ■
There are 16 ounces in 1 pound, so there are 40 ounces in 2 1/2 pounds.

8 oz. One pound equals to 16 ounces and one ounce equals 0.06 of a pound. Also this relates only to solid (weight) ounces. There are two different kinds of ounces, ounces of weight/mass and ounces of volume (fluid). This can change when you are using the ounces to measure a non-liquid such as flour or sugar since the weight of dry items is not the same as their volume. An ounce of volume is called a "fluid ounce."
