2. Solution Steps

First, we need to know the conversion factor between pounds and ounces.
There are 16 ounces in 1 pound.
1 pound=16 ounces1 \text{ pound} = 16 \text{ ounces}
Now, we can convert 5 pounds to ounces.
5 pounds=5×16 ounces5 \text{ pounds} = 5 \times 16 \text{ ounces}
5×16=805 \times 16 = 80
5 pounds=80 ounces5 \text{ pounds} = 80 \text{ ounces}
We are comparing 77 ounces and 80 ounces.
Since 80>7780 > 77, 5 pounds (80 ounces) is more than 77 ounces.
