1 pound = 16 ounces So we have 85 lbs and 2 oz, that is if we convert them to ounces: 85(16) + 2 = 1362 oz so we have 1362 oz total due to the conversion factor stated above, now we only need to divide: 1362/6 = 227 that is 227 oz or if we want the result in pounds (lbs), we can by dividing again by 16 227/16 = 14.19 lbs
