Answer: 5 pounds

Step-by-step explanation: To convert 80 ounces into pounds, first find the conversion factor for ounces and pounds.

Conversion factor ⇒ 1 pound = 16 ounces

Next, notice that we're going from a smaller unit "ounces" to a larger unit "pounds." When we go from a smaller unit to a larger unit we divide.

So we divide 80 pounds by the conversion factor which is 16.

80 ÷ 16 = 5

This means that 5 pounds is equivalent to 80 ounces.
