CONVERTING FROM OUNCES ONLY TO POUNDS ONLY:
The reading on the display will be in ounces only. To determine the weight amount in terms of
pounds only, divide the displayed weight by 16 (note: 1-pound is equal to 16-ounces). For
example: if the weight displayed on the scale is 157.3-ounces, divide 157.3 by 16: (157.3 / 16 =
9.83125). So, 157.3-ounces is 9.83125-pounds. Please note that 9.8-pounds is stated in pounds
only and is NOT 9-pounds 8-ounces; instead the “.83…” is a fraction of a pound (approximately
