Tomas ate 1.5 pounds of chocolate fudge last week. Katya ate half a pound of peanut butter fudge, while Boris ate 2 pounds of fudge. How many ounces of fudge did the 3 friends eat in total? Give me reasons, before answering the question
Tomas ate 1.5 * 16 = 24 ounces. Katya ate 0.5 * 16 = 8 ounces. Boris ate 2 * 16 = 32 ounces. Total = 24 + 8 + 32 = 64 ounces. The 3 friends ate 64 ounces of fudge in total. So the final answer is 64.
