A materials scientist has 72 pounds of a liquid. She uses most of the liquid to fill 9 beakers. The remaning liquid fills 1/7 of a 10th beaker. How many pounds of liquid is in one full beaker?
The number of fluid ounces in a pound depends on what liquid you are measuring. For instance, 16 fluid ounces of olive oil weighs 0.95 pounds. The same volume of water weighs 1.04 pounds
