Given that there are 594 calories in 6 ounces of a certain ice cream
We are required to find how many calories are in three pounds.
594 calories = 6 ounces
This implies that
1 ounce = 594/6 = 99 calories
Since 1 pound = 16 ounces,
1 pound = 16*99 calories = 1584 calories.
Now, easily,
3 pounds = 3*1584 calories = 4752 calories
Finally, we want to find how many calories there are in 48 ounces.
Remember that
1 ounce = 99 calories
48 ounces = 99*48 calories = 4752 calories.
