    KEY Calculating Weight Change in Pounds (lbs) and Ounces (oz)

    For the following problems, two weights are given. Calculate the change in weight in lbs/oz
    from one weight to the next, by subtracting the smaller weight from the larger one. If you have
    to borrow, remember that there are 16 ounces in a pound. Please show your work on the right.

    Example: Today’s weight is 13 lb 10 oz. Yesterday’s weight was 15 lb 13 oz.


    Set up an equation like this:
    (The larger weight): 15 lb 13 oz
    (The smaller weight): 13 lb 10 oz
    weight loss: 2 lb 3 oz

    1. Today the patient’s weight is 19 lb 2 oz. Last week her weight was
    18 lb 13 oz. Did she gain or lose weight? How much? Gained 5 oz

    2. Today the patient’s weight is 19 lb 15 oz. Yesterday her weight was


    20 lb 5 oz. Did she gain or lose weight? How much? Lost 6 oz

    3. Today the patient’s weight is 13 lb 10 oz. Last week her weight was
    15 lb 14 oz. Did she gain or lose weight? How much? Lost 2 lb 4 oz

    4. Today the patient’s weight is 8 lb 13 oz. At birth her weight was 10 lb 1 oz.
    Did she gain or lose weight? How much? Lost 1 lb 4 oz

    5. Today the patient’s weight is 23 lb 12 oz. At her last visit her weight was
    20 lb 5 oz. Did she gain or lose weight? How much? Gained 3 lb 7 oz

    6. Today the patient’s weight is 11 lb 7 oz. Last week her weight was 12 lb 5 oz.
    Did she gain or lose weight? How much? Lost 14 oz

    7. Today the patient’s weight is 17 lb 3 oz. At her last visit her weight was
    14 lb 9 oz. Did she gain or lose weight? How much? Gained 2 lb 10 oz

    8. Today the patient’s weight is 20 lb 5 oz. The last time she was weighed her
    weight was 23 lb 0 oz. Did she gain or lose weight? How much? Lost 2 lb 11 oz

    9. Today the patient’s weight is 36 lb 10 oz. At her last visit her weight was
    40 lb 3 oz. Did she gain or lose weight? How much? Gained 3 lb 9 oz

    10. Today the patient’s weight is 18 lb 11 oz. At her last visit her weight was
    21 lb 9 oz. Did she gain or lose weight? How much? Lost 2 lb 14 oz
